Casino Race 2 - Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service Mdn Hcp
VOSTOKOVA (3) returns for a third campaign off a four-month break. Went close to breaking through at the tail end of last prep, most recently going under narrowly as a $1.35 shot at Lismore. Trialling well and looks a fair bit better than these. CAUTIONARY TAIL (6) last appeared 20 weeks ago. Best run of the maiden campaign was a close fourth on debut over today's distance at Murwillumbah. In the mix with a repeat of that performance. MOTION A NATION (7) is back after a seven-month lay-off. Only raced twice in the maiden prep with a closing third over 1000m at this track on debut the pick of the runs. Should give a good account. LIFERAFT (4) is a first starter by Astern. Three siblings to race are all winners. Not far away in a recent Gold Coast trial so worth keeping safe. SILENT THINKER (1) is a newcomer by So You Think from a Fu Peg mare so he will get better in time over more ground. One for the exotics.

Gelding by So You Think making his first appearance. Finished fourth in a Doomben trial over 1000m on June 2. Will be better over more ground but worth monitoring for market support.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Brutal out of Kiss Moon. At the most recent trial finished sixth at Doomben over 1000m. Maybe wait and see.

Filly back from a spell of four months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last preparation second in a small field at Lismore Mdn-Sw February 10 over 1536m, soft track; a head behind Andros with 56.5kg at $1.35. Previously first up; fifth of 8 at Lismore Mdn-Sw January 4 over 1320m, 1.0 len behind Constellation with 55.5kg at $5. Honest filly who looks all set for a positive return.

Resuming after a four-and-a-half months break. Finished off last campaign second last of 12 at Gold Coast 3yo Mdn-Sw January 23 over 1200m, 12 len behind Ode To Beauty with 58kg at $21. On debut fourth of 7 at Murwillumbah Mdn-Sw December 12 over 1200m, 1.1 len behind Brutal Lass carrying 57.5kg at $21. Worth some though at the first run back.

Lining up for just third start. At very long odds at debut, ran last of 11 at Grafton Mdn-Sw on May 16 over 1115m, on heavy track; 9 len behind Not So Dubious with 57kg at $81. Last start 9th of 12 at Grafton Mdn-Sw on June 6 over 1205m, slow going 13 len behind Adequate Eze with 57kg at $151. Not up to this.
