Alice Springs Race 5 - Pfd Food Services Hcp

SQUARE CUT (4) is better than his latest effort suggests after finishing fifth over 1100m at this track 3 weeks ago. He drops in weight, and he looks capable of bouncing back into the winner's circle. LUSKIN HERO (3) has been racing consistently and was only narrowly denied at this venue last start. The drop in weight will help him and from the pole position, another bold performance is expected. ALTAR BOY (5) has attracted market support at his past two starts without delivering but is capable of much better than those recent efforts. He is certainly worth following. Each way value. O'TYCOON (1) resumes from a spell and has a proven record over this course and distance, making him a genuine first-up threat. BRAT (6) is in excellent form, boasting 2 wins and 2 placings from 6 runs this prep, and the hat-trick beckons.

Recent form sound. Most recently tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd in a small field at this track Bm76 on June 21 over 1100m, nose behind Pompeii Empire with 58.5kg at $2.90. The race before that favourite; won by 2.25 len at this track Hcp June 14 over 1200m defeating Zestiman carrying 55kg at $3. In form and will be hard to beat.
