Goulburn Race 5 - Gordon Pub Punters - A Gpg Hotel Mdn Hcp
Very tricky. WESTERN LANE (2) races forward and didn't quite put it all together last preparation. Two back went close at Kembla Grange, rating well, and he's prepared for his return with a 4.3L trial win at Rosehill. Will use the low barrier and a bold run is on the cards. TURF LUCK (1) improved sharply at his second start when beaten less than 1L here over 1200m. Jay Ford stays aboard and the blinkers go on for the first time. Will have taken further fitness and learning and maps well. THE WAY AHEAD (5) went close over 1000m at Wyong before the spell and led there first-up and the fitness gave out late. Will be sharper today and the shorter sprint should advantage. Can make the finish. Stablemate CRESTWOOD (7) deserves plenty of consideration on debut. Has a wide gate but looked good winning at Warwick Farm in the latest of three trials.

Gelding by Brutal facing the starter for the first time. Finished fifth in a Rosehill trial over 1030m on January 29. Prefer to see under race conditions.

Second run back. First-up after seven months faded in the straight 6th of 8 at Wyong F&M Mdn-Sw on January 25 over 1200m, 4 len behind In Limbo with 58kg at $9. Previously second-up ran last in a small field at Newcastle Mdn on April 23 over 900m, on rain affected going; 8 len behind Hawker Hall carrying 57kg at $16. Plenty of improvement to come.

Third race start. First start 3rd in a small field at Kembla Grange Mid Mdn-Sw on August 7 over 1000m, on heavy track; 4 len behind Smart Cry with 55kg at $4.80. Returned from break ran last of 7 at Kembla Grange Super Mdn on January 28 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Manukau carrying 55.5kg at $31. Fitter and has each way claims.
