Darwin Race 2 - Textum Roofing Hcp (Bm66)
Open race but happy to stick with FIELDS OF COURAGE (3) who broke through for an overdue win here last time and beat some of these. Meets them worst at the weights but hard to knock recent form and can go close again. HENNESSY LAD (1) ran a much-improved race second-up and is a third-up winner. Ready to win and shapes as one of the key chances. BEAU FACTOR (4) was placed behind FIELDS OF COURAGE last time in third. Meets the winner better at the weights and is one of the chief contenders. TENNESSEE WHISKEY (2) was the horse that split that pair and is also better off at the weights so has to be right in the mix. HE'S MAVERICK (7) ran a better race last time and is worth including.

Recent form sound. Most recently gave a sight but was run down late 2nd in a small field at this track 0 - 64 on June 20 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Fields Of Courage with 61kg at $8. The run before that 4th of 11 at Sunshine Coast Bm65 on May 10 over 1800m, slow going 4 len behind Crathie Kirk carrying 59kg at $26. Not far away last time. Meets winner better at the weights and is likely to feature again.

Most recently raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a head at Alice Springs 0 - 64 June 21 over 1600m defeating Valley Prince carrying 57.5kg at $4.20. The race before that ran second last of 7 at Tennant Creek 0 - 64 on May 16 over 1450m, 17 len behind Taipan Tommy with 58.5kg at $5. Hard to fault recent form and worth keeping safe.
