Queanbeyan Race 5 - Tab Quaddie Pump (Bm58)
XCEPTIONAL SPIRIT (6) is the one to beat on the strength of her placing at this track two starts back, where she began awkwardly, led and was still beaten just under two lengths in a Class 1. Her Orange run last start was only fair after leading and fading in a BM50, but the beaten margin was just over three lengths and the weight relief helps her rebound. MORE STYLISH (9) resumes from over a year away and brings a readiness pointer after winning an easy trial at Queanbeyan. The new 900m trip is the query, yet her overall record is stronger than most in this field. ALABAMA HAMMER (1) comes back from provincial BM64 company after a first-up third at Newcastle and is already proven at this distance, although the top weight keeps some pressure on. MEDIA COVERAGE (8) is race fit, backs up after winning a BM50 at Tumut and had earlier finished close up at Orange, so he profiles as a genuine place threat stepping into harder company. The chances don't end there.

Placed first-up in a BM64 at Newcastle, finishing third to Precious Girl and beaten four lengths after working home evenly on soft ground at big odds. She had led and faded late in the same grade at Newcastle before that, but this is an easier meeting and the 900m suits, with one win and one placing from three tries at around the trip. Proven at 900m, though the top weight is the query.

Had a case to be a little closer at Port Macquarie last start, being steadied at the first turn before finishing seventh in a Class 1, beaten two and a half lengths. The run prior reads better, with a second at Muswellbrook in BM66 grade when near the top of betting. Some claims at 900m, but she has to sharpen up.

Returns from a two-month let-up after going close at Moruya, where she was sent out favourite and ran second to Abstruse, beaten a length over 1020m. Two back she was forced wide in a Class 2 at Wagga and stuck on evenly on heavy ground. Undefeated at the track and worth thought.

Returns from a four-month break after ending his first campaign with a Mdn win at Quirindi, beating Fioggia by just under a length after picking up sharply. His debut third at Taree came on heavy ground after being bumped early, so there is some natural upside in only two starts. Progressive gelding with genuine claims from the low draw.

Returns from a three-month break with the inside draw and a 1.5kg claim in his favour. He was seventh at this track at his final run last campaign, beaten five lengths on soft ground, after a Nowra sixth where he was only a length and a half away despite racing keenly and being bumped. More a place chance than a winning play first-up.

Can rebound strongly fourth-up with weight relief after finishing eighth in a BM50 at Orange, where she led and faded but was still only beaten just over three lengths. Her previous third at this track in Class 1 grade was better, as she began awkwardly, led and was hampered late when beaten just under two lengths. Last run was only fair, but she can bounce straight back.

Comes here fit and in form after winning a BM50 at Tumut as favourite, beating The Favorite Son by just under a length with Damon Budler staying aboard. He had also run third at Orange two back, beaten just over half a length behind Travelon Dory, and that line included finishing ahead of Xceptional Spirit. Harder now, but his recent form is solid.

Returns from a lengthy spell after winning an easy trial at Queanbeyan, which is a useful readiness pointer for a mare with three wins from 16 starts. She was last seen running seventh at Moruya as favourite, beaten just over three lengths, after an unplaced Class 3 run at Sapphire Coast where she raced wide. Her best form is good enough and the 900m trial win was sharp.

Drops back from a Class 2 at Wagga, where he finished last behind Just Hear Me Out and was beaten just over seven lengths at long odds. His Wagga Riverside run prior was also plain, leading before fading in a BM50. Place claims if the blinkers do the trick.

Backs up in 10 days after finishing last in a BM50 at Tumut behind Media Coverage, beaten eight and a half lengths, though she did race wide throughout. She was also last at Bombala the start prior, beaten over 13 lengths after jumping awkwardly. Outclassed.
