Kembla Grange Race 4 - Bernadette Dean (Bm64)
COOL LAD (3) was enormous first-up at Mudgee then backed that up with a barnstorming win over this trip at Gosford last start, slicing through the pack to get up in the shadow of the post. Suited on this bigger track in a small field so a repeat performance is on the cards. WOOTTON WAY (4) returns from a 20-week spell. Progressed nicely in her maiden campaign, culminating in a last start win over 1250m at Canterbury. Two recent trials should have her ready to make her mark while fresh. HELLOVA NATURE (5) produced a real eye-catcher in a $50k race over this distance at Tamworth last time, making up a stack of ground to grab second. Ready to peak after three runs back from a spell. TAKE THE RAP (1) has enjoyed a nine-week let-up since a couple of plain efforts to kick off the latest prep. Trialled well at Queanbeyan recently and has found the right race to turn things around. FORCEFILLY (7) strips fitter and is open to plenty of improvement.

Second-up. First-up after 11 months 10th of 12 at Newcastle Cl1 on April 23 over 1250m, slow going 6 len behind Master Yoda with 60kg at $101. Previously second-up ran last of 12 at Sandown-Hillside Bm70 on June 18 over 1300m, 11 len behind Silver Cliff with 57kg at $21. Would prefer to see him return to some form before recommending.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming 4th of 12 at Mudgee Bm66 on April 5 over 1100m, 0.5 len behind Cumnock with 61.5kg at $4.20. Second run from a spell came from midfield and won by a nose at Gosford Bm64 April 25 over 1200m defeating Emalyn with 57kg at $10. Hits the line with gusto and looks a big chance to go back-to-back.

Resuming after a five months break. Not seen since winning by head Canterbury 3yo F Mdn December 19 over 1250m defeating Our Huntress carrying 56kg at $6. On debut fifth of 7 at Rosehill F&M Mdn-Sw November 12 over 1200m, 3 len behind Plaintiff carrying 56.5kg at $71. Has upside and may pay to follow this prep.

Dual acceptor. Racing well recently. Most recently 2nd of 11 at Tamworth Open on April 24 over 1200m, 1.3 len behind Pride To Follow carrying 52kg at $17. The run before that ran on strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at Gosford Mid Bm68 on April 9 over 1200m, 0.6 len behind Probability Theory with 53.5kg at $19. Has ability and should run well from the good draw.

Second run back. First-up after five months got back early 7th of 10 at Gosford Bm64 on April 25 over 1200m, 4 len behind Cool Lad carrying 52kg at $61. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by 2 len at Goulburn Mdn September 12 over 1100m in heavy going defeating Tomcat Flowers with 51kg at $8. Cannot be underestimated.
