Casterton Race 2 - Nutrien Ag Hrdl
FENGARADA (3) had a busy Warrnambool Carnival, winning on the Tuesday before a second placing on the Thursday when heavily-backed. They were only the second and third runs of the campaign, so no reason he can't springboard here even if he's unlikely to strike as heavy a ground, which is what he loves. POINT NEPEAN (2) was a nice winner over the hurdles two back, then was tested over the bigger obstacles at Warrnambool, which he didn't relish. Back to hurdles here suits. ENCHANTED ELLE (1) was too bad to be true in the Galleywood and will find this more to her liking. KARBURAN (4) has made really good progression in some good hurdle races this prep and has to be taken seriously off the Galleywood placing. THE VOCALIST (5) is up in grade here but will be fitter for the two runs back and can improve.
