Mudgee Race 3 - Lion Nathan Country Boosted Mdn Hcp
XERXES (4) came out fast from the wide draw and faded badly in the straight when tenth over 1400m at Scone. Finds a more suitable assignment and assess on his two earlier runs when figuring in the minor money. Can bounce back. ANGELISLE (9) lightly raced mare who steps up to her preferred trip today. Sat on the speed second-up when a plugging fourth over 1200m at Bathurst on January 31. Went under narrowly at this trip last prep and doesn't have to improve much to win this. DIVINE BELLE (7) resumes from a lengthy spell after showing ability when last in work. Returns without a trial and gets in light with Baker's 2 kg claim. Value player. WOLF CLUB (3) gelding resuming on his home track. Had the one run for the stable when a poor fifth over 1200m at Coonabarabran last October. Returns with a 1000m trial win and worth serious thought with the blinkers added. TERRITORY DAY (8) holding his form and no excuses fourth-up. Keep safe.
