Bathurst Race 1 - Little Wych Premium Spelling Pace
HOPPALONGPOG (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 3.5 metres from the winner in third over 1730m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up and he can take this out. HOLY CAMP DILLON (8) was in the money at Dubbo two runs ago before finishing eighth at his latest appearance over 2040m at Parkes, beaten 30 metres. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Good enough to take out a race like this. BUTTER CUP (10) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when third at this track over 1730m. Must be included. D J ROCK NZ (3) disappointed last time when ninth over 1609m at Menangle. Can do a lot better so is well worth considering.

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr8) over 1730m at this track beaten 25 m by Major Bye (2:03.50) on August 19 at $19. Two runs back was well back in the run when 9th (Fr7) over 1730m at this track beaten 16 m by Grayson Red (2:04.90) on August 12 at $17. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Two back was well beaten into eighth after being driven well back, behind Kenzie Shannon at this track over 1730m on August 12 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Major Bye at this track over 1730m on August 19 at $12. With even luck is a winning chance.

Last start was well beaten into eighth behind Riviere at Parkes over 2040m on August 21 at $3.10. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 3rd (Sr4) over 2120m at Dubbo was 10th-28.4 at the bell, beaten 12 m by Tulhurst Elvis (2:36.30) on August 7 at $11. Major player on best form.
