Gunnedah Race 3 - Mark Hughes Foundation Masters
MICK THE MASTER (2) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (20.16) at this track over 340m. Has a good record here at this journey. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Can bounce back. FIVE MILE ROSE (1) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at Maitland over 400m behind HIS FERNANDO (23.21) in a Mix 1/2/3. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. One of the better chances. IMPRESS SPIETH (5) boasts a strong record this course with 11 wins and eight minors from 33 tries. In the money last time at this track (19.83) in a NG, finishing a 3 length third. Suited here and expected to run well. HIS FERNANDO (6) was well fancied last time on the back of some sparkling form, which included a two-start winning streak, but could only manage fifth (25.13) at this track. Strong form has emerged from his last run.

Missed the frame latest (20.16) when sixth over 340m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well off the draw boasting three wins and two places from seven starts. Looks suited and should go close.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 340m at this track in a handy (19.69), beating Armatree Joker. Will find this a bit tougher, likely to struggle this time.

Form has been strong with wins two and three starts back. Last time out finished 3rd over 340m at this track beaten 4.5 lengths (20.07) behind His Fernando in a Mix 1/2/3 on May 20. Last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.

Has finished fourth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 5 lengths behind Levings over 340m. Should be around the mark.
