Dubbo Race 5 - Artistic Lodge 3yo Mdn Pace
PORCUPINE CREEK NZ (3) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at her last four starts including a third most recently at West Wyalong over 1740m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. This should be an easier assignment so she is sure to prove tough to beat again. VINIES JOLT (2) draws well and is a likely challenger after her last-start fifth over 1730m at Bathurst a week-and-a-half ago. MISTER DEPENDABLE (4) copped a check and broke last start. Fitter third up and is suited coming back to maiden grade. TULHURST MOUSE (6) boxed on as runner-up, beaten 2 metres, in a far better performance at Parkes. May feature again.

Fair performance when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third behind Air Force Major at Eugowra over 1700m on October 5 at $12. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Handle Bars Down at West Wyalong over 1740m on October 18 at $2.90. Looks very hard to beat.

Lines up again after a break of seven months. Well beaten at the end of his last preparation when ninth at very big odds behind Smooth Chakra. Has been in work for a little while but after a lengthy break may need the run.
