Orange Race 3 - Towac Legends Day Orange Cup Prelude (Bm82)
GOLDEN LOOM (6) in career best form in town and on the provincial tracks. Just over three-weeks between runs when he failed to close off with the 59kg to run seventh over 1600m at Newcastle. Will appreciate the 56kg here and assess on the good earlier runs in the city. DARK VADOR (5) has a solid record over this track and trip and stays in the mix with the dominant victory over 1625m at Wyong. Stalks the speed and gets his chance. Go close. INSTEAD (7) in career best form with the two wins from her last four runs. Motored late from back in the field with an eye catching third over 1600m at Tamworth. Key jockey change and look for her late from the inside gate. ONEFORIAN (8) just over five-weeks between runs when he knocked up late to finish seventh over 1600m at Canberra. Fitter now and not without top-three claims. COSMIC LAD (2) improving with racing after being anchored with the big weights. One for the exotics.

Second run back. First-up after five months ran last of 9 at Canterbury Bm72 on February 27 over 1550m, slow going 14 len behind Cellarmaster with 59kg at $21. Previously second-up won by 1.3 len at Eagle Farm Bm70 March 22 over 1830m on a soft track defeating Aimpoint with 56kg at $15. Capable on his day and can surprise at this level.

Racing well and can keep the winning momentum going.
