Warren Race 6 - Warren Shire Cotton Cup

TALKACHINO (7) is the one to beat after a narrow long neck defeat at Dubbo, where he finished ahead of MICRO MIKKI. His two wins with Jacob Stiff are a solid indicator, and a strong third at Cootamundra adds to his good form. A proven record at 1600m enhances his profile. MARNOO (8) has placed in both runs this campaign and looks ready to strike third-up, with two wins and a placing from five starts at this distance. While NEWS BOUND beat him at Coonabarabran, the weight relief gives MARNOO a chance to turn the tables. MICRO MIKKI (1) has shown better recent form than his last fourth suggests, facing trouble at Dubbo but benefiting from a strong rider in Clayton Gallagher. He carries top weight but handles wet ground well. NEWS BOUND (6) arrives in winning form after two BM66 victories, though she needs to prove her ability at 1600m. MACLEAY (5) claim helps again in a weaker race.

Comments

Backs up quickly after finishing fourth at Dubbo, beaten a long neck by Hammoon Sensation after racing keenly and being bumped at key stages. The start prior at Coonamble was a sound second to Green Run, beaten just over half a length, so the recent form is holding up. Clayton Gallagher has two wins and four places from seven rides on him, and his wet-track record helps offset the 61kg. Handles wet ground and has a strong winning profile.

Eased from provincial company after a seventh in a BM68 at Newcastle, where he was slow to begin and failed to come on, beaten six and a half lengths by Sharp Shock. He had led and boxed on for fifth at Coonamble the start prior, beaten just under three lengths behind Green Run. The 3kg claim helps, though recent form points more to a placing.

Comments

Second-up after a fair sixth over 1100m at Dubbo, beaten two and a half lengths at long odds after jumping awkwardly. His previous outing in a BM82 at Tamworth was poor, finishing last and beaten out of sight by King Kikau. Others make stronger appeal.

Comments

Has been out of form and was second last at Dubbo, beaten just under six lengths at big odds after beginning slowly and racing keenly. The run prior at Coonamble was a little better, but still only sixth and unwanted in the market despite some traffic around the turn. Distance wins are a small positive, but improvement has to come quickly.

Had genuine excuses when fifth at Dubbo, beaten two and a half lengths after jumping awkwardly, being bumped and racing wide throughout. That followed a closing fourth in a BM82 at Scone, where he was beaten three lengths by Nova Centauri and hit the line better than the result suggests. A repeat puts him right in the place mix.

Comes off consecutive BM66 wins, latest scoring at Coonabarabran by a length and a half from Tiger Town as a well-supported favourite. The Coonamble win before that came at big odds but showed she can finish over the top of them. She gets weight relief and beat Marnoo last start, though 1600m is new territory. First try at 1600m is the clear test.

Went very close at Dubbo last start, finishing third and beaten a long neck by Hammoon Sensation after being an outside chance in betting, with Micro Mikki behind him. His previous Cootamundra third behind Belleistic Kids was another honest effort, and he has two wins and two places from nine starts at this distance. Proven at 1600m with Jacob Stiff aboard, he is the one to beat.

Progressive third-up profile after placing at both runs this campaign, most recently third in a BM66 at Coonabarabran when beaten just over two lengths by News Bound. He was also a big-odds third at Coonamble over 1200m, beaten just under a length. Weight relief makes him a serious danger.

Won a Class 3 at Coonabarabran last start, beating Coella by half a length as favourite after covering ground and driving late. The start prior was a close BM66 fourth to News Bound at Coonamble, although she was a short odds-on favourite there. Back in good order and don't dismiss.

Comments

Was last in a BM66 over 2000m at Bathurst, beaten just over eight lengths at big odds after jumping awkwardly and racing wide. The start prior produced a second at Grenfell behind Talkachino, but that was only a three-horse field. Still has to improve on recent form to be a factor.
