Canberra Race 1 - Tab.com Pace
MISTER WELLS (8) ran fourth last start at Riverina Paceway over 1740m, beaten 6 metres after he led at the bell but faded over the final stages as the favourite. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. Has recorded two wins from four previous starts at this track and has the ability to take care of this field. UNCLE CRAIGO (1) ran sixth as the $2.60 favourite last start at Goulburn over 1710m, beaten 6 metres after he was held-up in the run home. Expected to run well having drawn pole position. FREASON (7) won here two runs back and must be considered one of the main dangers after he finished third over 1710m at Goulburn eight days ago. MAJOR ISSUES (3) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw. Include in exotic bets.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 6th (Fr2) over 1710m after showing early pace at Goulburn, at the bell was 3rd-4.4 beaten 6 m by See Me No More (2:04.30) on September 28 at $2.60. The run previous 5th (Fr5) over 2270m after racing wide at Riverina Paceway, at the bell was 6th-10.8 beaten 12 m by Warieda Boy (2:46.50) on September 18 at $8.50. Draws the inside so worth another chance.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr3) over 1710m at Goulburn, at the bell was 8th-11.7 beaten 6 m by Alwaysatthebeach (2:04.50) on September 28 at $8.50. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.2 m when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at this track (2:09.20) beating Centrefire in on September 21 at $101 at the bell was 5th-6.6. Will prove hard to beat.

Returns from the paddock. His previous first-up run was successful when he won by 1.75 m (Sr2) at Temora (2:35.40) beating Ultimate Ego in on January 10 at $8. Will be better for this run and happy to watch this time.
