Warracknabeal Race 7 - Taylor's Palace Hotel After The Last Hcp (58)
Nathan Hobson looks to hold a strong hand here with a couple who not only bring good form for a race like this, but will also put themselves on speed, which can be an advantage here. REWARD THE SHERIFF (3) contested some stronger races than this earlier in the prep and was only run down late last start in a race that didn't appear any tougher than this. He's drawn alongside stablemate THE WAYFARER (5) out wide, but they'll both go forward and whoever gets the better run might end up the winner. STIRRUP (10) made a nice return on the synthetic but generally runs his best races on the turf, so this looks more suitable even if he has failed to figure in three previous starts on this track specifically. BENTLEY BROOK (1) is also second-up and comes off a fourth placing here when not far behind THE WAYFARER. COSMIC RHAPSODY (4) needs to lift on recent starts but gets the chance to do so being significantly down in class.

Second run back. First-up after four months 4th of 11 at this track 0 - 58 on August 16 over 1005m, slow going 1.5 len behind Per Ivy carrying 60kg at $9.50. Previously second-up 8th of 13 at Randwick Highway-C3 on November 5 over 1000m, 6 len behind Duke Of Bronte carrying 55.5kg at $26. Has a nice draw and will be tough to beat.

Most recently ran last of 13 at Bendigo Bm64 on August 14 over 1000m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Cannyworth with 58kg at $201. The start before that ran last of 7 at Ballarat Synthetic Bm64 on July 15 over 1000m, 10 len behind Aqueduct with 59kg at $31. Getting beaten too easily and not likely to threaten.

Last start tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 12 at Swan Hill 0-58 on August 24 over 975m, 0.5 len behind Kezza's Legacy with 60kg at $2.70. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 12 at Swan Hill Bm58 on July 29 over 975m, on rain affected going; 6 len behind Mistavain with 60.5kg at $10. Will be in the firing line for a long way.

Form hard to fault. Most recently raced on the pace when 3rd of 12 at Swan Hill 0-58 on August 24 over 975m, 0.6 len behind Kezza's Legacy with 57.5kg at $3.60. Before that gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 11 at this track 0 - 58 on August 16 over 1005m, slow going 0.8 len behind Per Ivy with 57.5kg at $4. Not far away last start. Has to be carefully considered.

Second-up. First-up after five months 9th of 11 at this track 0 - 58 on August 16 over 1005m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Per Ivy carrying 54.5kg at $41. Previously second-up 5th of 7 at Cranbourne Bm64 on May 17 2024 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Squad with 57.5kg at $61. Looks a fair way off peak form so others are preferred.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran last in a small field at Ballarat Synthetic Bm64 on July 27 over 1000m, 4 len behind Mr Tickles carrying 52kg at $15. Previously second-up 4th of 11 at Bairnsdale Bm58 on April 15 2024 over 1200m, 2 len behind Superset with 58kg at $26. Fitter for that run and expected to be in the finish this time.
