Northam Race 1 - Swan Draught Hcp (C3)
WHO'S BENT (1) will be peaking third up from a spell, and he is dropping down in class from his last run. A good draw, and a 3kg claim makes him the one to beat in the small field. SPINARELLA (4) capped off some good form with a well-timed run to score by a short head at Belmont just over 5 weeks ago in a tougher field than she meets here. She only rises half a kilo in weight, and she can repeat the dose. SOMETHING ROYAL (3) was a touch disappointing when finishing fifth here 18 days ago as the favourite. She is normally very consistent, and will have the aid of a 4kg claim this time. Stick with her. Each way. MANTUA (6) has not won for some time, and his last run was only plain. He drops further down in weight and is worth another chance in the small field. GREAT PROMISE (2) was ridden off the pace last time out and finished third, continuing her terrific run of minor placings this prep. She can secure a soft run from the pole position and should be fighting out the finish.

Recent form sound. Last start sat on the pace when 3rd of 7 in a Cl3 at Belmont Park on August 26 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Blue Can Talk carrying 55.5kg at $5. The race before that led but faded 2nd of 7 in a Cl1 at this track on July 23 over 1100m, 1.3 len behind Flash Dancer carrying 57kg at $4.20. Worth plenty of thought.

At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 7 in a Cl3 at Belmont Park on August 26 over 1000m, 2.25 len behind Blue Can Talk carrying 56.5kg at $2.60. The start before that 2nd of 9 in a Cl3 at Bunbury on August 13 over 1000m, slow going long-neck behind Bosisto with 56kg at $3.30. A bold showing is on the cards.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 36 day let-up. At the latest run ran on from midfield and won by a head in a 3yo Plate at Belmont Park on August 8 over 1000m on a soft track defeating Manhattan Squeeze carrying 55kg at $9. Before that sat on the pace when 3rd of 13 in a Mdn at Bunbury on July 30 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Extronize with 53.5kg at $3.70. Well placed in this company and looks the testing material again.

Second-up. First-up after four months 2nd of 8 in a Rtg 46+ at this track on September 3 over 1100m, head behind State Of Fury carrying 55kg at $41. Previously second-up 3rd of 8 at York on March 15 over 1100m, long-neck behind Scream with 53kg at $14. Yet to score when second up and isn't among the top hopes today.
