Gundagai Race 2 - Inglis Xtra Bonus Showcase Super Mdn Hcp
ESSAY (10) is back after a 19-week spell. Raced just once last prep and missed the placings over 1000m at Hawkesbury as a $1.80 chance. Likely to find today's trip far more to her liking. Comfortable recent trial winner who is primed to run a big race. SWEET HARRY (4) last appeared when a distant second on debut over 1000m at Canberra on 4 September. Took out a Canberra trial on 3 November. Draws a lovely gate and should be right there at the business end. BRUCEDALE (1) returned from an 18-month spell with an encouraging second over this trip at Albury recently, beaten narrowly. Should kick on following that hit-out. Blinkers on, which is a sign of intent from the stable. EXCEED SONIC (5) has not raced since failing on debut at Geelong in June. Going well at the jump-outs in Victoria so he might have more to offer this time in work. SCATTERED SANDS (11) won a trial at Hawkesbury on 20 October and looks ready to make a positive debut.

Third race start. First start 6th of 11 in a Super Mdn at Wagga on May 1 2025 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Master Patrick carrying 59kg at $3.60. Returned from break 2nd of 11 in a Mdn at Albury on October 24 over 1175m, head behind Tungamah Tess carrying 59kg at $6.50. Fitter and with the blinkers going on looks a leading contender.

Second run back. First-up after 11 months did the work up front then tired ran second last of 7 in a Super Mdn-Sw at Kembla Grange on October 10 over 1300m, 5 len behind Graffiti Tycoon with 59kg at $41. Previously second-up ran second last of 9 in a Super 3yo Mdn at Rosehill on November 12 over 1400m, 11 len behind Big Tiger carrying 57kg at $19. Fitter for that run and should offer a bit more this time.
