Muswellbrook Race 5 - Baker & Farrow (Bm58)
DASH BY (5) returns from a let-up after racing in career-best form. Stalked the speed with the claim when a tenacious winner over 2050m at Gunnedah. Placed at this track and trip two-back and maps well. SPENZALOT (6) is looking for the extra ground now after closing late for a respectable fourth over 1600m at Scone. Will appreciate the claim and shapes as a leading prospect. EVER WAS (8) anchored with the 61.5kg when jumped in trip for a fading sixth over 2000m at Bathurst. Assess on his two earlier performances. Can bounce back quickly. THINK I'M IRISH (7) fourth run for the new yard after running second over 1560m at Bong Bong. One for the exotics.
