Bathurst Race 6 - Confederate Returns To Cobbitty Equine Waratah Heat
DUN SPRUIKIN (3) produced a far better performance last start when coming from the back line to be beaten less than 4m into second at this circuit and distance. Should enjoy an economical run from this draw so can go one better. TASBMIKI (7) is in good form with placings in his last two starts at this circuit and distance, most recently beaten a nose into a second. Draws wider but with even luck he could break through. TULHURST TIMMY (9) draws for a trail and has done a good job to place in his last two outings. KADAR (1) has been coming from wider or second line barriers of late so could be a big improver from the ace draw.

Last start 8th (Fr6) over 1720m after racing wide at Dubbo, at the bell was 5th-9.2 beaten 17 m by Foresight (2:04.30) on May 22 at $15. At his previous start 5th (Sr1) over 1660m at Parkes, beaten 4 m by Always Lightning (2:03.20) in 4yo+ on May 15 at $12. Has the inside draw which may spark a revival.

Two back was well beaten into eighth after being driven well back, behind Capitalism at Forbes over 1680m on May 3 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Lucky Punt at this track over 1730m in a NR up to 52 on May 20 at $15. Nice effort last time. Winning chance.

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr8) over 1730m after racing wide at this track, at the bell was 10th-16.76 beaten 14 m by Karinya Haz (2:05.90) on May 13 at $34. Two runs back then settled down to finish seventh over 1730m at this track last start. Unlikely to threaten from a wide draw.

Solid run when a close second after a quick start, behind Hazza Is Watching at Dubbo over 1720m on May 8 at $310. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Always Lightning at Parkes over 1660m in a 4yo+ on May 15 at $9. In fine form. Draws for a trail and should perform well again.
