Avoca Race 6 - Whyte Just & Moore Lawyers Avoca Cup
OMNIC (7) hardly runs a bad race, and though he does not win often, he probably should have scored last time out in the Coleraine Cup, instead he had to settle for an unlucky second, his fifth such position in a row since winning fresh up. On top for us. TIKEMYSON (4) has had a couple of subtle gear changes since his last start in the Hamilton Cup last week, where he overdid it outside the leader that day. A good track will help him, and he is worth another chance. RAF ATTACK (1) has yet to feature in 3 starts back from a spell, but this is his right level, and a form reversal is on the cards. FOX APPEAL (2) is heading the right way with his form this season, and he maps to get the run of the race from the pole position. Each way value in this. VERONA RUPES (6) was a solid neck winner in lesser company at Mildura 11 days ago, and with 5.5kg less to carry here, she should be included in all top 4 combos.

Comes here off a 29-day let-up. At the latest run got back early 11th of 14 in a Gold Nugget at Ballarat on September 18 over 1600m, 7 len behind Ten Commandments carrying 54kg at $15. Before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 12th of 14 in a Bm78 at Caulfield on August 29 over 1800m, slow going 7 len behind Politely Dun carrying 59.5kg at $26. Can improve sharply.

Form hard to fault. Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 12 in a Coota Cup Bm81 at Cootamundra on October 4 over 1600m, 0.6 len behind Belleistic Kids with 60.5kg at $3.50. The start before that 3rd of 11 in a Jerildcup Bm78 at Jerilderie on September 26 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Eamonn's Memory with 62kg at $6. Impressed last start. Sure to prove hard to beat.

Returns from a 56-day let-up. Most recently ran second last of 12 in a Bm78 at Randwick on August 22 over 1600m, on a slow track; 9 len behind King Of The Sea with 55kg at $101. The run before that 6th of 9 in a Bm72 at Canterbury on August 5 over 1900m, 9 len behind Aethelwulf with 56kg at $18. Has ability and is one of the chances.
