Balnarring Race 6 - Trophy Race

HOUDINI CATARNO (4) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 1.75 lengths over 2308m at Woolamai. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. RULE OF SALEX (3) is a distance specialist who ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 2308m at Woolamai after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Nicely placed to take this out. PINE VALLEY (1) hit the frame two starts ago at Woolamai but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 4 lengths over 1650m at Dederang. This is a nice drop in grade so he is likely to play a big role. REDABOUT (5) was beaten 9 lengths into sixth in a 1608m contest at Woolamai last time out. Better than recent efforts suggest.
