Bathurst Race 8 - Little Wych Honouree Final
SEASIDE DELIGHT (1) is a lightly-raced but highly consistent gelding who added to a string of top-two finishes when he led and boxed on for second here on Monday. Reliable and could be hard to get past this time. ALFREDJOHNCRUSADER (3) made a winning start for the new yard when he led from this barrier and kept going to get home by 1.6 metres at this circuit. Yet to miss a place at this distance. Capable of running another big race. NICK OF TIME (10) is going very well with two wins and a nose second from his last three starts here. Scored from this barrier last time. Major player. WHYIMAN (6) scored back-to-back wins before racing parked and boxing on as favourite last time. Respect. Something for the Multiples: NICK OF TIME NZ (10)

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m second behind Nick Of Time at this track over 1730m NR up to 60 last start. Before that was beaten 2.5 metres second at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in NR up to 52 on March 14. Rates highly and can go close.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fifth behind Tisbury Rocks at Junee over 2170m in a NR up to 55 on March 18 at $4.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Alfredjohncrusader at this track over 1730m in a NR up to 60 on March 24 at $8.50. Could be there at the business end.
