Charlton Race 6 - North West Ag Services Mdn Trot
RAPTA (6) comes here following a Group One fifth nine days ago over 2240m at Melton, beaten 13 metres by Howdy Mate. Sure to prove hard to beat. ALDEBARAN MIGUEL (8) was responsible for a far better performance when second up at his latest appearance, finishing second over 1609m at Cranbourne. Will enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw, with the sprint lane to play a big role. Primary contender in a similar race. COLLEAGUES (7) is in the mix following a respectable second at his first run back over 2240m at Swan Hill. FRANKS ALOT (5) is a three-year-old gelding by Southwind Frank from Wish List on debut. Likely to attract plenty of interest from punters.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Jet Plane at Kilmore over 2180m in a 3yo on August 13 at $4.80. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Alectrona at Cranbourne over 1609m on September 13 at $6.50. Will be right in the thick of things.
