Bathurst Race 7 - Town And Country Rural Supplies Pace
ALWAYS A SAM (7) did a good job to finish third when fresh from a spell at this track two runs ago then settled back and failed to finish off well enough at his latest appearance over 1730m at this track, beaten 45 metres into seventh. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Leading hope if anywhere near his best. MICKILLATIGER (2) led at his most recent outing and finished fourth in a nice progression over 1660m at Parkes, beaten 4.5 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Big chance in this comparable race. SINFUL KISS (9) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 2040m at Parkes last time out. AARON MINT (8) last appeared when sixth over 1720m at Dubbo 11 weeks ago. Must be respected.

Lines up again after a break of 11 weeks. Well beaten at the end of her last preparation at this course when ninth at very long odds behind Swift Code. Has only trialled once and might need this pipe-opener.
