Tamworth Race 2 - Gemstar Jumping Castles On-Site Today Pace
SPOOKY ART (10) led last start and saluted in a far better performance at this track over 1980m, getting home by a neck. Draws out a little on the second line and may need luck at some point. Stepping up a level this time but he is capable of another big performance. MY ULTIMATE HUGO (2) finished fourth at his most recent outing, beaten 7 metres, in a far better performance here over 1980m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw and his recent form is good enough to put him right in the finish. BARRYS BROTHER (3) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this circuit. One for the exotics players. MAKE MINE BETTOR (1) is the best of the rest after finishing sixth first-up over 1609m at this course last time out. Strips fitter now and has to be included from the coveted pegs draw.

Last start won by a neck as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:29.30) beating Lord Jaydo in 0-1 WIN on October 2 at $2 at the bell was leading 1.2. In form and sure to prove very hard to beat.
