Muswellbrook Race 4 - Horsepower Country Boosted Hcp (C1)
Good little contest with plenty of chances. ARAPAWA (6) in leading Scone yard and kept coming first-up with a fast finishing second over 1000m at this track. Comes out of a strong contest and expected to go close. HANUMAN (1) second run for the new yard he scored the breakthrough Maiden win over 1000m at Wellington with the 59kg. Confidence is high but doesn't get the same map favours here. Each way. RING MY BELL (8) resumes with the nice 900m trial win under her belt. Went out a winner with a sound on-pace victory over 1000m at Quirindi last November. Has the speed to get over from the sticky draw. Keep safe. MAGURTZ (4) smart gelding resuming. Improved with racing in his first prep to get the job done here third-up over 1280m. Fitted with a solid 1000m trial placing and looks set for a good prep from the low gate.

Second-up. First-up after four months 2nd of 8 at this track Cg&E Cl1 on April 6 over 1000m, on a slow track; nose behind Northern Boogie carrying 55kg at $6.50. Previously second-up won by a long-neck at this track Ctry Mdn November 4 over 1280m defeating Redford River carrying 57kg at $3.10. Good type who shed his Maiden status second-up last prep, expected to go on with it here.

Resuming after five months in the paddock. Finished off last preparation won by neck Quirindi Mdn-Sw November 13 over 1000m defeating Go Russian with 55.5kg at $1.40. Previously first up; fifth of 9 at Coonabarabran Super Mdn October 26 over 1200m, 6 len behind Somerton Smart with 56.5kg at $12. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Looks set for a positive return with the good trial win over 900m.
