Quirindi Race 7 - Gowings Toyota Country Boosted (Bm66)

THINK BACK (6) is the one to beat after controlling a BM58 at Moree and beating GOLD SMILES by half a length as favourite. Gets weight relief with the rise in grade and reunites with Weir, who knows her well. Well placed to make it two on the bounce. COELLA (8) has strong claims after a CL3 second at Coonabarabran, especially as she had difficulty getting clear in the straight and has won at her only start at this track. MELLENCAMP (5) chased gamely into the placings when resuming on the Beaumont and now rises sharply to a pet trip. Yet to win second-up but his track and trip record is hard to ignore. FLAMBOYANT LAD (1) is knocking on the door and has enough early to offset the wide draw, though this is his first look at the mile. If he gets his own way in front he could be tricky to run down. BIG SHORT (7) comes off a decisive BM50 win at Tamworth and is proven at the trip, but he comes from picnic grade into a harder meeting. Keeping safe for a minor spot.

Comments

Was solid enough in Saturday company at Randwick last start, finishing fifth in a Class 3 and beaten three lengths after racing wide throughout. The run prior at Muswellbrook was sound when fourth, beaten a length and a half in an open market. The new 1600m trip is the query, but place claims remain.

Comments

Has been safely held at his past two starts, the latest a last of seven in a BM82 at Scone when beaten over 13 lengths after making no impression from the back. He was big odds and only eighth at Coonamble the run prior, so the form trend is plain. The grade relief is some help and he has won at 1600m, but current figures leave him with plenty to find. Happy to miss.

Comments

Began slowly at Moree last start and made ground from well back to finish fifth, beaten just under four lengths on soft ground. Two back at Coonamble he was wide throughout and only fair late when second last. He has won at this track and has some 1600m grounding, but recent runs have lacked the sharp finish required to make him a serious winning hope. Looking to others for the winner.

Backs up quickly after a heavy-track BM74 at Kempsey where he was near the top of an open market but finished fifth, beaten over 12 lengths. His Moree fifth in BM58 company before that reads better, though he was still beaten by Think Back and Gold Smiles. The return to 1600m suits on his broader record, but he has to rebound sharply. Keeping safe for a minor spot on the quick back-up.

Resumed with a good third in a BM58 at Beaumont (newcastle), beaten just under two lengths after travelling handy and working home evenly. He now comes up in grade, but the second-up platform is useful and he gets weight relief from that return. A sound place hope.

Comes off the right form line, having won a BM58 at Moree as favourite and beaten Gold Smiles by half a length despite being bumped at the start. Her prior Muswellbrook fifth as a well-supported favourite was only fair, but she has responded since and now gets weight relief with Mikayla Weir back aboard. Strongest winning case.

Won well at Tamworth last start, scoring by three and a half lengths in a BM50 after being near the top of betting. This is a harder meeting than that picnic assignment, and he had been beaten by Think Back at Moree four days earlier, so the class rise is real. Place profile.

Went close in a Class 3 at Coonabarabran last start, finishing second and beaten half a length after having difficulty getting clear in the straight. Her Port Macquarie fifth before that had merit after she began slowly and made ground from the rear. Strong chance if she sees out 1600m.

Chased Think Back at Moree last start and was beaten only half a length in BM58 grade, which ties him directly to the top selection. The run prior at Mudgee was better than fifth reads after he was slow away and held up around the turn. The 1600m record is the query, but he has winning claims.

Was beaten just over eight lengths behind Big Short in a BM50 at Tamworth last start, and now faces a harder meeting off that picnic-grade effort. The previous Tamworth run was no better on the page, finishing last at long odds despite some early interference. He has won at 1600m and backs up quickly, but recent form is too plain to recommend strongly. Unlikely to threaten.

Finished fourth behind Big Short in a BM50 at Tamworth last week, beaten just under six lengths, and this is a harder meeting than that picnic race. His Inverell second before that was also well beaten on heavy ground after jumping awkwardly. He gets weight relief and is race fit fourth-up, but he has to produce a much sharper finish to trouble the better chances. Happy to avoid.
