Marburg Race 4 - Get Well Soon Gary Bond Pace (Sky 1)
OCTOBER RACKETEER (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 5.5 metres from the winner in second over 1780m at Redcliffe. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field and he can grab that well-deserved win. WANDARY DELIGHT (6) turned in a poor effort by her standards last start when 19 metres away in seventh over 2200m at this track. Form prior to that had been solid. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row. Meets a comparable field and she can turn in a much better performance. IDEAL TIGER NZ (9) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 2200m at this track eight days ago. ROSEANNE RUBY (7) is worth some thought as place chance despite her last-start ninth over 1660m at Albion Park on June 25.

Fair performance when beaten by 3 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Specialandiknowit at this track over 1850m in a 3yo+ on June 21 at $4. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second behind Illbewatching at Redcliffe over 1780m in a 3yo+ on June 29 at $2.40. Major player.

Began his campaign last start running 6th (Sr4) over 1850m at this track, beaten 16 m by Holme Boy (2:16.20) in 3yo+ on June 28 at $101. This looks a far sterner task.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m second behind Take Courage at Redcliffe over 1780m 3yo+ last start. Before that was beaten 5 metres third at Albion Park over 1660m same class on June 22. One of the better chances.

10-year-old mare showed improvement last start. Won by 2.75 m (Fr3) at this track (2:19.00) beating Estival in 3yo+ on June 28 at $81. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into eighth behind Tapthekeg at this track over 2200m in a 3yo+ on June 21 at $81. Needs to do more. Not as keen on her chances in this line-up.
