Orange Race 1 - Shed Boss Orange Mdn Plate
KINGDOM HEART (6) makes her stable debut for the Pepper camp. Trialled well in readiness but couldn't follow up on it when resuming at the provincials. Kept fresh and will find this easier. Expecting sharp improvement with the blinkers on. LONG TIME LOVERS (5) got a long way back at Dubbo but closed off nicely to finish a close fifth. Finds the maiden win elusive but gets a good chance to break the ice. NARMER (2) is a four-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Michael Mulholland. By American Pharoah from Power Lady. Comes here off a Dubbo trial placing. Can make a bright start. CARAFE (4) bounced straight into a handy position from the inside draw before fading here last time. Expect him to give another sight. BRING THE RAIN (3) debuts and looks next best.
