Scone Race 3 - Arrowfield Country Boosted Mdn Plate
ARE YOU KIDDING (3) firmed to start at $2.70 but found the winner a shade too good on debut last start over 1000m at Muswellbrook. Has a terrible gate to contend with but if things go right he looks a great chance to open the account. ZO FRILLING (8) is the danger first-up from a 21-week spell. Raced well last prep but it should be noted at was all on soft or heavy tracks. Recent Tamworth trial winner who is a serious threat if she can bring the wet track form to a firmer surface. SILENT SERENADE (12) made it four minor placings from as many career runs when she found the line well but still finished 2.5 lengths behind ARE YOU KIDDING at Muswellbrook recently. Draws a far better gate today and can close that gap. HE'STHECHIEF (1) returns after a 195-day spell. Yet to be tried on a dry surface but his form with the sting out of the ground reads well. Keep him in mind. SCATPAK (2) hasn't been far away in his two runs this time in work and a slightly longer trip today helps.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign fourth of 10 at Tamworth Mdn-Sw July 18 over 1200m, in the wet; 2.5 len behind Great Idea carrying 57.5kg at $4.20. On debut fifth of 8 at this track Ctry Mdn-Sw April 14 over 1100m, soft track; 1.3 len behind Rail Trail carrying 58.5kg at $5.50. Capable of making his presence felt.

Was well-supported at debut, made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Muswellbrook Mdn-Sw on January 13 over 1000m, slow going 0.9 len behind Difensivo carrying 58kg at $2.70. Just needs luck from the wide gate to be going one better.

Is first-up after a break of five months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation fourth of 9 at Canberra Mdn-Sw September 5 over 1400m, soft track; 2 len behind Yes I Win with 57kg at $2.50. Previously first up; second of 9 at Port Macquarie Mdn March 11 over 1006m, soft track; 0.6 len behind Don't Tell Jack with 56.5kg at $21. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Everything points to an effective return.

Had two starts to date. At long odds at debut, 6th of 9 at Armidale Mdn-Sw on January 5 over 1100m, 5.5 len behind Corvette Pride carrying 55.5kg at $31. Last start 4th of 10 at Gunnedah Ctry Mdn on January 19 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Kawatiri carrying 55kg at $31. Might find a few of these a bit too slick.

Resuming. Not seen since she finished last of 9 at Muswellbrook 2yo Hcp July 8 over 1000m, soft track; 14 len behind Zocketman with 55kg at $201. On debut ran last of 10 at Tamworth Mdn-Sw June 16 over 1000m, soft track; 11 len behind Rembroy carrying 55kg at $41. Prefer to see how she returns.
