Q Straight Race 8 - Gorski Hardox Tough Tippers 5Th Grade H
CRAB POT (4) had a tricky draw last time and although midfield in fourth wasn't far away finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner (25.90). The form from his last run stacks up well. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. CHEVY STORM (2) jumped from out wide and was game in defeat last start when a 0.8 lengths second (18.01) behind Pinch Point at Richmond Straight. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Well-placed to take this out. COUSIN HENRY (7) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (19.70) in a NG at Gunnedah. Well placed here and can atone this time. CLIFTON BEACH (5) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Ran a better race when third behind Federal Emeran at this track last start over 300m (16.98). Has to be respected.

Returns from a four-and-a-half months break and only other fresh up run was on debut, when a 17.76 winner over 324m at Richmond Straight. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 300m at this track. Tested under these conditions.
