Orange Race 2 - Buckley's Carpet Court Mdn Hcp
ZOUQUA (2) was solid on debut two-and-a-half weeks ago when she finished 2L away in fifth over 1200m at Goulburn. Is from a sharp stable and is a big chance with race experience now on board. ANYONE (1) is back from a spell of eight months. Should be forward enough following two recent trials. Well placed on the country circuit and gets her chance to breakthrough. JEWEL COUNTY (3) finds a more suitable contest dropping back to the country and should be nearing a peak fourth-up. Worth some thought. PANCAKE PETE (7) made some progress last start to finish fifth over 950m at Cowra, beaten 2.5 lengths. Stepping up in distance this time and is worth including. SUDDEN STRIKE (4) is still improving and could sneak a minor spot.

At the latest run 6th of 8 at Kembla Grange 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on January 28 over 1600m, 10 len behind Walk Like A Man with 57kg at $21.

Will be harder to beat this time.
