Cootamundra Race 2 - Heritage Motel Plate (C1)
BLOOMIN' RICH (10) has made an encouraging start to his career with a pair of fourth place finishes, and he will be suited stretching out to a mile for the first time here. He is still a maiden so will carry 3kg less this time, but he still has the scope to win a race like this. BOUJEE GOLD (9) steadily improved with racing, and capped off that form with a comfortable win at Queanbeyan nearly 4 weeks ago when third up from a spell. A wide draw is no help, but this circuit gives you plenty of time to find a handy spot, and she will be among the hardest to beat again. HUSSY LA VISTA (5) has been racing well since her easy maiden win at the Sapphire Coast in late July. He last start fourth at Hawkesbury at provincial level is good form for this race, and she can take this out. ZIPPY LION (3) enjoyed the step up in trip to score by half a length at Moruya nearly 3 weeks ago, and he will continue to improve with more racing over more distance. Stick with him. AVALON LADY (4)

Last start 2nd in a small field in a Bm58 (Bm56) at Grenfell on September 26 over 1400m, 2 len behind Golden Warrior with 56kg at $1.80. The race before that 6th of 10 in a Cl1-Sw at Tamworth on September 14 over 1600m, 4 len behind Blazed Prince with 57.5kg at $1.65. This looks a stern test.

Form hard to fault. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 1.0 len in a Mdn at Canberra on September 26 over 1600m defeating The One carrying 55.5kg at $3.30. Before that 4th of 10 in a Ctry Mdn-Sw at Queanbeyan on September 8 over 1460m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Boujee Gold carrying 57kg at $9. No reason she cannot get the job done again.

Form hard to fault. Last start came home strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 7 in a Mid Cl1 at Hawkesbury on September 24 over 1500m, 4 len behind Dubai Adventure with 55kg at $21. The race before that 2nd of 10 in a Bm58 at Goulburn on September 11 over 1600m, nose behind Toussaint carrying 57.5kg at $15. Certainly worth another chance.

Second run back. First-up after three months won by 1.75 len in a Super Mdn-Sw at Gundagai on September 6 over 1400m on a heavy track defeating El Cool Gee carrying 57kg at $6.50. Previously second-up 4th of 11 in a Fedral Mdn at Canberra on March 8 over 1000m, slow going 3 len behind Travelon Dory with 56kg at $15. Back in good order and can feature in the finish.

Previously second-up 6th of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Goulburn on March 10 over 1400m, slow going 11 len behind Buckeye carrying 59kg at $71. Won't be far away with a repeat of that latest performance.

Most recently rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 8 in a Cl1-Sw at Leeton on September 22 over 1900m, 1.5 len behind Cool As Popeye with 55kg at $14. Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 in a Cl1-Sw at Griffith on September 12 over 1820m, 9 len behind Vasala with 55kg at $17. Thereabouts last start but looks tested this time.
