Scone Race 4 - Wendy Smith Memorial Hcp (C1)
Competitive contest. SUMMER FORCE (7) massive performance at her second race start from the outside draw with a commanding victory over 1300m at this track. Can race much closer today and has the upside to go on with it now. FORCE MARCH (1) lightly raced gelding who demolished a decent Maiden field with a comprehensive win as fav over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Should be even stronger heading into this and carries the big weights well. Go close. DUNQUIN (3) comes back in class third up and a win looks imminent. Savaged the line as fav with a narrow second over 1200m at Tamworth in C2 company. Ready to go one better from the right draw. EXPIDO (2) is racing well on the provincial circuit and gets every chance today from the low draw. Kept coming with the 58kg to secure third over 1200m at Gosford in BM64 grade. That form is good enough to take this out.

Comes here off a 32-day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 10 in a Cl1 at Tuncurry on August 24 over 1000m, on a slow track; 1.1 len behind Issy's Star carrying 59kg at $4.20. Before that 3rd of 7 in a Cl1 at Newcastle on August 13 over 900m, 1.5 len behind Third Base with 55.5kg at $6.50. Needs to take another step to trouble some of these.

Dual acceptor. At the latest run 5th of 8 in a Cl2 at Tamworth on September 14 over 1200m, 2.75 len behind La Potenza carrying 56.5kg at $26. Before that 9th of 12 in a Bm58 at Gold Coast on August 1 over 1400m, 8 len behind Precise Star carrying 59kg at $26. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.

Second-up. First-up after eight months 7th of 12 in a Cl1 at Muswellbrook on September 8 over 1000m, 6 len behind Amajicstar with 55kg at $151. Previously second-up 2nd of 10 in a Ctry Mdn at Bathurst on October 17 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2 len behind My Crown with 55kg at $13. Looks a fair way off peak form and others are preferred.
