Tamworth Race 5 - Vale Col Hobday

ESCALERA NZ (7) has been knocking on the door for a while then went close again last time over 1609m at this track, finishing third and just 5.5 metres from the winner. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Meets a similar line up and he is a strong winning hope. KEILOR BABY SHARK (4) disappointed last time when ninth over 2030m at Newcastle. This is easier so can turn things around. GROSESTAR (8) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Won't find this any harder and he can grab that well-deserved win. PRINCESS REMI (1) last appeared when seventh over 1780m at Redcliffe five-and-a-half months ago. Expect a better effort to kick off this prep.
