Wagga Race 2 - Delta Star Designs 'The Road To The Jericho’ Mountaineer Cup (Bm74)
WILL TO EXCEL (4) returned from a break and proved too classy last start, scoring narrowly over 2400m on the Riverside surface. Fitter now and loves this track and trip. Cahill sticks and the pair tick plenty of boxes. VALENTINE JOHN (3) is going better than the form reads and will appreciate the drop back to the country. Has form around him that stacks up. GOOFINATOR (5) just missed behind WILL TO EXCEL last time and is ticking over well. Meets him worse at the weights but has the fitness edge. SCARLI JAPALI (1) got a long way back last start but charged home to finish fourth, beating home VALENTINE JOHN in town. The rise in trip suits but she does carry an extra 5kgs. Interesting to see LUMBER DREAM (2) jumping sharply in trip after a midfield effort on the Riverside.

Form hard to fault. Last start ran on strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 8 at Warwick Farm Bm72 on October 15 over 2400m, 4 len behind Scottish Pearl with 55kg at $41. The race before that 3rd of 8 at Newcastle Bm64 on September 20 over 2300m, 2.5 len behind Casino Bear with 59kg at $41. Tough under the big weight but is worth keeping safe.

Most recently 4th of 7 at Wagga Riverside Bm66 on October 18 over 1675m, 2.5 len behind Southern Dancer with 61.5kg at $31. The race before that second last of 8 at Cootamundra Coota Cup Bm84 on October 5 over 1600m, 8 len behind Epaullo Creed with 55kg at $91. Intriguing to see the sharp rise in trip, keeping an eye on.

Second run back. First-up after three months won by a nose at Wagga Riverside Bm66 October 18 over 2400m defeating Goofinator with 56.5kg at $19. Previously second-up won by 0.6 len at Warren Bm58 June 2 over 2400m on a rain affected track defeating Joshua carrying 61kg at $26. Back in great order and is well-placed to go on with the job.

Recent form sound. At the latest run held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at Wagga Riverside Bm66 on October 18 over 2400m, nose behind Will To Excel with 55.5kg at $5. The race before that 3rd of 7 at Dubbo Bm58 on October 3 over 2200m, 0.7 len behind It Is To Be carrying 59.5kg at $3.90. Ticking along superbly and deserves his respect.
