Charlton Race 6 - Cricket Club Hotel Mdn Pace
HALF AS TOUGH (11) finished second last start, beaten 6 metres, in a nice return to form at Hamilton over 2160m when second-up from a break. Meets a comparable field and with a bit of luck from this difficult draw he can take this out. KELLYS COMMOTION (10) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at Shepparton over 1690m. Genuine threat. SEW HOPEFULL (8) must be considered after she finished third over 1690m at Kilmore six days ago. BETTER THEN DAICOS (2) has been coming from wider barriers. The better draw brings him into calculations.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr6) over 1720m at Melton beaten 50 m by Pet Wolf (2:02.80) in 4yo+ on October 21 at $81. Before that, 5th (Fr1) over 1690m at Maryborough was 6th-10.2 at the bell, beaten 4 m by Jansen (2:02.50) on October 12 at $151. Has a low draw this time and can improve.

Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Pet Wolf at Melton over 1720m in a 4yo+ on October 21 at $51. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Dispersion at Hamilton over 2160m on October 26 at $81. Will be right in the thick of things.
