Gunnedah Race 11 - Mark Hughes Foundation Max 150 Points
MCVEE (1) is better than last start when sixth (20.57) from Box 2 at this track over 340m. Worth another chance. TRUST A PROCESS (3) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (25.61) at this track behind Crackerjack Neil in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Expected to feature again. BAD BOY BANJO (6) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his handy win the start prior, getting around this track over 340m in 19.63. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. ARMATREE DIESEL (8) can fill a top-three spot.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 6th over 340m at this track beaten 8 lengths (20.57) behind Ava's Carlilah in a Grade 5 on October 22. Placed two back at this track. More than capable and well placed to find her best form.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (20.70) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length fifth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Makes appeal on best.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 25.61 over 431m at this track. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Follow up.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 340m at this track clocking 19.74. Going well and can bounce back to winning form.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (19.98) in a Grade 5, finishing a 7 length fourth. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Can feature in the finish.
