Illawarra Grange Race 6 - Your Next Stop Wests Illawarra Provincial (Bm64) Hcp
TEQUISODA (3) would definitely be at his best over longer however he is a winner over this course and distance first up before. Will get a similar run to that occasion as well. Does seem well placed after the claim to get the softest run and be right in it. CAP D'AIL (2) has been around the mark in all his form this campaign. He hasn't drawn the best which hurts but can still take up a forward position. ALL MACHIAVELLIAN (6) comes off a short break and a long time between wins. His best would be fighting this out. BANG ON TIME (8) has to be ready now after three efforts. The market seems to keep finding her.

Gelding returning from a spell and has won previously when first up.

Dual acceptor. Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up got back early 8th of 12 in a Prov Cl1 at Kembla Grange on October 10 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Shuda Known carrying 58.5kg at $13. Second run from a spell got back early 5th of 7 in a Cg&E Bm64 at Hawkesbury on October 27 over 1400m, 4 len behind Superata with 58.5kg at $4.80. Capable enough and is worth serious consideration.

Resumes after a break of three-and-a-half months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation second last of 9 at Kembla Grange Cg&E Bm64 August 8 over 1400m, 11 len behind Everido with 56.5kg at $3.90. Previously first up; fourth of 8 at Kembla Grange Bm64 April 18 over 1200m, soft track; 7 len behind Presides carrying 57kg at $19. Looks all set for an effective return.

Last start 8th of 10 in a Prov Bm64 at Kembla Grange on October 24 over 1500m, 4.5 len behind Bondi Blossom with 57kg at $21. Before that 2nd of 8 in a F&M Bm64 at Hawkesbury on October 15 over 1300m, on a slow track; nose behind Miss Emma with 57.5kg at $19. Not likely to threaten.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming ran second last of 7 in a Bm66 at Nowra on October 18 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Alabama Showdown with 55kg at $31. Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading 11th of 13 in a Midway Bm72 at Rosehill on November 7 over 1300m, 5 len behind Common Goal carrying 52kg at $201. Doesn't make any appeal.
