Tamworth Race 4 - Tamworth Radio Cabs 131008 Pace
PEPPI GRATZ (6) produced a strong effort last time out when he came from the back row and scored by 3 metres at Newcastle. That was his third win from his last five starts and he was successful the only time he raced here. ANTETOKOUNMPO (2) had to work last start so should enjoy today's draw closer to the pegs. Had kicked off the campaign with back-to-back placings and should be hitting peak fitness now. EIFFEL FROM HEAVEN (1) has been coming from the back row of late and there was merit in the latest effort for fourth. Well served by the ace draw and has recorded three wins and a placing in seven attempts at this circuit and distance. TRUTHBETOLD (5) has been about the mark of late and must be respected after recording a fourth successive placing with a 2.5m second at Narrabri on Sunday.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Cinnamon at Narrabri over 1760m in a 0-1 WIN on April 5. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Cinnamon at Narrabri over 1760m in a No NR on April 12 at $15. Form sound and certainly one of the contenders.
