Tamworth Race 4 - Vale Bevan Turner
TRY CATCHING ME (1) produced a good performance last time out when third from a wider draw at Newcastle, her second placing in three starts since a spell. Peaking now and should get her chance from the ace draw. SOFT LANDING (2) progressed off a fresh placing at Newcastle to lead from wider and win by 9m at this circuit and distance. Can take advantage of this favourable starting position so could take the next step. BET ON POLLY NZ (4) should find this easier than the last attempt and did a good job to place when fresh at Newcastle prior. COOGEE (7) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound third at this circuit and distance.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 5th (Fr6) over 1710m at Goulburn was 8th-17.1 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Haycharli (2:05.60) on September 7 at $16. Showed ability the outing before when he came from midfield and won by a neck when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at Newcastle (2:29.20) beating Maverick in on August 31 at $4.60 at the bell was 4th-6.12. Contender.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Maxy Bomber at this track over 1609m on August 27 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Katastrophee at this track over 1609m on September 10 at $41. Expected to be competitive again.
