Maitland Race 8 - Tg Hunter Concrete Group 6-15
SHANGHAI SPY (2) was sent out big odds last time but scored an upset win in a Grade 5 at The Gardens (22.91). Has won four of eight starts from this draw. Looks the one to beat. MONSOON ETHICS (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (22.74) in a Grade 5 at this track. Form is hard to fault from this box, with a win and two minor placings from three starts. Deserves plenty of respect. GO FORWARD JACKI (4) has a strong record this trip with four wins and four placings from 10 starts. Missed the frame latest (22.68) when fourth over 400m at this track in a Grade 5. Can hit the frame with the right run. BRING ON BLING (8) is worth including.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.5 lengths in 22.50, beating Drink To That. Last start finished 4th over 400m at this track beaten 4 lengths (22.68) behind Bear's Head in a Grade 5 on May 4. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Has finished fourth at the last two runs, both at Gosford, the latest when beaten 3 lengths behind Impatient Rose over 388m. Has ability and looks a winning hope.
