Maitland Race 6 - J&H Commercial Services
SHOT OF MAGIC (2) hit the frame latest (17.71) when third at Richmond Straight in a NG. Has two wins already from this draw. Makes strong appeal on best. TORNADO ETHICS (3) goes very well over this track and trip including four wins. Below best last time at Grafton (20.01) in a NG, finishing a 3.5 lengths fourth. Makes strong appeal on best. BEAR'S HEAD (8) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by 7 lengths at this track in a handy 22.32 beating Jonesy Revenge. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. One of the prime contenders. HAPPY ETHICS (7) must be respected as a past winner at this course and distance.

Looks close to another win after his success on June 4 at Richmond Straight over 324m. Last start was third over 324m in 17.71, behind Freight Express. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 2, scoring two times. Go close.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but he goes well over this track and distance with four wins from eight starts. Leading contender.

Won two starts back won at this course over 400m. Couldn't reproduced the effort last start when he finished 2nd in a Grade 4/5 on June 22 over 400m at this track behind Happy Ethics beaten 1.5 lengths (22.69). Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 350m at Grafton. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Hit the ground running and set it up early clocking 22.59 with a 1.5 lengths win at this track over 400m. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.

Good effort to win last start by 7 lengths over 400m at this track in a handy (22.32), beating Jonesy Revenge. Deserved winner last time after finishing in the money four on end prior to that. Can make it two on the trot.
