Narrabri Race 7 - Daisy Water Carrier Raymond Shepherdson Memorial

ESCALERA (6) turned in an out-of-character effort last start when 20 metres away in eighth over 1980m at Tamworth. Form prior to that had been solid. Has the ability to take care of this field. FAST TRACKER (5) scored by 18 metres at Tamworth over 1609m last start, the second win from his past three outings. This should be an easier assignment so he is set to continue his fine form. ROCK FISHERMAN (7) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth at Newcastle over 1609m. Must be included. PARATROUPER (2) disappointed last time when ninth over 1609m at Tamworth. Can do a lot better so worth considering for all combinations.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Fast Tracker at Tamworth over 1980m in a NR up to 53 on April 3 at $6. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after a quick start, behind Fast Tracker at Tamworth over 1609m in a 4yo+ NR up to 60 on April 17 at $6.50. Among the major players on his latest effort.
