Maitland Race 4 - Windsor Castle Hotel 1-3 Win
BOY NAMED BLUE (4) won again in an impressive display to make it back to back wins, scoring by 2.75 lengths (22.93) at The Gardens over 400m. Expected to be right there at the finish again. IN THE GHETTO (7) was a swift 22.39 winner of a Grade 5 at Bulli last start. Has the ability and can measure up again. MAYFAIR SHINE (1) drew a squeeze box and was game in defeat when a close second, 0.8 lengths from the winner Cobra Beach (25.42) at Gunnedah. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Leading chance. TOP BIN NISMO (6) profiles nicely over this trip.

Did a good job two starts back at Wentworth Park to win by 1.5 lengths in 29.90, beating Fancy Pay Cheque. Last start finished last in a Grade 5 on August 29 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Impress Moana beaten 15 lengths (30.76). Can't recommend against this lot.
