Ararat Race 6 - Tm 'Murray' Slattery Willaura Cup (Bm70)

FRONTLINE ACTION (4) won over a mile at Tatura first up as a $2.3F and will improve quickly off the Flemington outing following. Needs this trip and has raced well in much tougher metro company. In a smart barn and this is a winnable assignment. BON FETE (7) has improved his numbers since his win over 2100m in a 66 at Sandown. Just missed at Pakenham last time and Yendall will give him every chance from the handy barrier. EARLY WARNING (9) was quickly back on track beaten 1L at Morphettville over 2000m in a 64. Kersley rides and he'll be in the finish holding that form. Stablemate SURFY PETE (10) ran a competitive figure in a 78 at Mt Gambier two weeks ago. Maps for the run of the race and he always puts in. DARTBOARD (2) is going well enough to consider.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at Mt Gambier Summer Cup on January 25 over 2062m, 0.7 len behind Van Roy carrying 56kg at $3.80. The run before that ran last of 15 at Flemington Bm70 on January 17 over 1800m, 16 len behind Fiorenot with 60.5kg at $101. Not far from the winner last time and among the better chances.

Before that raced on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 10 at Warrnambool Koroit Cup on January 11 over 1700m, 4.5 len behind Brung King carrying 56.5kg at $11. Worth a look.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up came from midfield and won by a neck at Tatura Bm62 December 14 over 1600m defeating Aka Daka with 61kg at $2.30. Second run from a spell 5th of 15 at Flemington Bm70 on January 17 over 1800m, 4 len behind Fiorenot with 57kg at $15. Suited and will be tough to roll.
