Forbes Race 1 - Shead & Nicholson / Daikin / Seeley International Country Boosted Mdn Plate
RITA RED (5) has impressed in both runs back and will take catching third up. Covered ground up on the speed when a gritty third over 900m at Corowa. Will stalk the pace and expected to go close. CARAVANSERAI (1) first run for the Natalie Jarvis yard he motored late from the wide gate when a sound second over 1020m at Moruya. Can race closer here and doesn't have to improve much to get off the mark. SPEED OF THOUGHT (6) sharp improver at her second race start, when she gripped on late at the big odds to run a tough second over 1175m at Albury. Claim helps again and has genuine each way claims. TRIPTOLEMUS (7) sat on the pace on debut before fading late when an even fifth over 1175m at Albury. Will come on with that run and not to be underestimated. PERFORMING DIVA (4) resumes after showing ability in her two runs at her first campaign. Back without a trial and adept in all going. Keep safe.

Second run back. First-up after six months made significant ground from the rear of the field 2nd of 11 at Moruya Mdn on July 21 over 1020m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Spice Baby carrying 58kg at $4.20. Previously second-up 5th of 8 at Kilmore 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 24 over 1104m, 3 len behind Tan Tat Rubi with 58kg at $6. Fitter for that run and will be tough to beat.

Resuming after a five months break. Finished off last preparation second of 7 at Goulburn Ctry Mdn Sw February 28 over 1000m, 0.9 len behind Lombardi Lass with 56.5kg at $3.30. On debut fourth of 10 at Nowra Ctry Mdn-Sw February 9 over 1100m, soft track; 8 len behind Rose Aye carrying 56.5kg at $4. Likely improver who can start this prep in a strong way.
