Grafton Race 2 - Grafton Sheetmetal Country Boosted Mdn Hcp
TORQUE SO HOT (1) third-up for this and finds a winnable race with the blinkers going on. Drifted back further than anticipated and covered plenty of ground in the run when seventh over 1200m at Gold Coast. Assess on the good second first-up. Go close. COSMIC FUN (8) is mixing her form and comes back in trip third-up. Sat on the speed and didn't find much when pressured in the straight with a fading ninth over 1410m at this track. Placed first-up and finds an easier contest here. MACAU PRINCE (2) has failed to stretch out in all three career runs on rain-affected going. Back in trip third-up with a tiring eighth over 1262m at Taree on a heavy (10) track. Drops in weight and can make amends here. IN BOCCA AL LUPE (5) placed two-back, then snagged back from the wide gate with a plugging eighth in stronger grade over 1000m at this track. Backs up quickly and must be kept safe.
