Grafton Race 10 - Phil Mclennan Earthmoving
KIA MCGRAW (8) should enjoy clear running from the outside box. Below best latest at this track (26.07) when 6th and beaten 6 lengths. Goes very well at course and distance boasting seven wins. The form out of last race has been strong. Can bounce back. BARLEY CHARLIE (1) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fifth (20.54) at this track. Has a good record here including four wins. Should be in this for a long way. CALL TO ARMS (2) has been out of the placings the last couple but was a Grade 4/5 winner (20.45) three back at this track. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. LOVE THIS BAR (5) is likely to have admirers.

Last start finished 5th over 350m at this track beaten 8 lengths (20.54) behind Power Valley in a NG on July 31. Had been in strong form, hitting the frame two times on end, before the latest effort. Can atone.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 320m at Richmond. Can't recommend in this field.

Was out of placings last time (20.77) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing eighth and beaten 9 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from six starts. Among the main chances.
