Wagga (H) Race 8 - Medowie Lodge Pace
CAPTAINS CATCH (8) was held up at Menangle last time so was far from disgraced when only 4.6 metres from the winner. Had been racing well with a string of wins and placings prior including a win from a similar barrier to this at Menangle, Strong claims. BOOM (7) looks close to a win. Finished second last start at Goulburn having filled the same position at Menangle three back. Has won both times he has raced at this circuit. Primary contender. MONGIANA (3) deserved his last-start win by 10 metres at Shepparton and draws closer to the pegs. GUILTY PARTY (6) has been racing well and can feature off a win here two back.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Captain Ravishing at Menangle over 1609m in a No NR on March 28 at $81. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Sheffield Sparky at Goulburn over 1710m in a NR up to 80 on March 31 at $4. Could maintain his unbeaten record at this circuit.
