Orange Race 1 - Buckley's Carpet Court And Can Assist Orange Showcase Hcp (C1)
In a plain affair FRANKIE'S SHOUT (3) looks a great chance to return to winning ways. Not disgraced two back in a Country Championship qualifier at Dubbo then made late ground over 1300m at Hawkesbury last time. Either of those performances would be good enough to take this out. WALK THE PIER (2) picked up late to grab third when resuming in a Class 2 over 1300m at Canberra last time out. Scored a big win at Moruya last prep over a similar trip to this. Strips fitter and poses a genuine threat. OMNIC (1) struggled first-up at Goulburn but he is not a noted fresh performer. Competitive at the provincials last prep so with that run under the belt he can play a key role against this line-up. PROCLIVITY (5) is in the mix coming off a one-month let-up with just 53kgs on his back. Hard to make a case for the other runners, headed HIMEROS (9) on a seven-day back-up.

Dual acceptor. Second-up. First-up after five months second last in a small field at Goulburn Cl1 on March 22 over 1300m, slow going 5.5 len behind Hazel Jean with 61kg at $10. Previously second-up 5th of 9 at Goulburn Cl1 on August 24 over 1400m, on heavy track; 3.5 len behind Socrazyinlove with 58.5kg at $5.50. Placed two from three when second-up so watch for a much better run.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after eight months 3rd of 8 at Canberra Cl2 on March 25 over 1300m, slow going 1.2 len behind Common Goal carrying 59.5kg at $6. Previously second-up got back early 6th of 8 at Kembla Grange Super Mdn-Sw on May 31 over 1600m, in the wet; 10 len behind Charleroi carrying 59kg at $2.90. Fitter for that last run and is worth following up.

Dual acceptor. Last start got back early 5th of 10 at Hawkesbury Cl1 on March 26 over 1300m, 2.5 len behind Your Chilli with 52kg at $101. The race before that 7th of 13 at Dubbo Wra Champ on March 15 over 1400m, 4 len behind Poisen Point with 56kg at $71. Big class drop and is a terrific chance to return to form.

Returns from a 31-day let-up. Last start 5th of 9 at Moree Cl1 on March 17 over 1300m, 2.5 len behind Bole Le carrying 54.5kg at $13. The race before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 10 at Dubbo Bm58 on March 6 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Just On Fire with 59kg at $9.50. Freshened up and has the ability to take this out.
