Orange Race 3 - Pirtek Orange (Bm50)
RAGER (2) went forward last start over 1200m at Tumut and held on well for third. Bounced back nicely last start and can keep the ball rolling now from the good draw. RIVER ROGUE (4) was better second-up at Dubbo when sticking on soundly into a midfield finish. Suited by the rise in trip and has further improvement to come. SPECIAL PROPHET (5) drops back sharply in trip after he was well held last time over 2100m at Gosford. Will appreciate the drop in grade and is far better suited to make his presence felt. BEG ME (7) has been kept fresh for this since his sound fifth at Parkes over the mile five weeks ago. Deserves another chance. TOONGI BOUND (1) strips fitter fourth-up and gets 3kgs off again. Keeping safe in minors.

Most recently raced on the pace when 3rd of 10 at Tumut Bm50 on January 17 over 1200m, 2 len behind Rowdy Anthem carrying 62kg at $6.50. The run before that couldn't go on with it; ran last of 9 at this track Bm58 on December 15 over 1300m, slow going 8 len behind Burrowa with 56kg at $11. Working up to a win. Nicely placed and will be hard to beat.
