Gunnedah Race 2 - Gunnedah Hotel
SHORTY BOY (1) comes off a (19.55) win last time, scoring by 2.25 lengths in a NG over 340m at this track. Has two wins already from this draw. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. COOKIE MAN (3) ran a handy 19.71 when filling a minor placing over 340m at this track last start. Harder here but expected to feature again. JOCK (2) has been out of the placings last two but shapes well for this if he can recapture his swift win a few runs back, getting around this track over 340m in 19.70. Top win three back and rates a key player again. PESSIMISM (4) placed last time and is worth some thought.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 19.55 with a 2.25 lengths win at this track over 340m. Returned in great order and can make it two on the bounce.
