Warracknabeal Race 6 - Pony Xpress (Bm56)
Tough race. Siding with CRACK A DEEL (1) just because he looks to have a little more upside than most. Connections though enough of him to tackle the G2 MV Vase after the maiden win last prep and there's probably not many here who would have got within 5.7 lengths of Observer. Got home nicely first-up at Swan Hill and will relish the extra distance here. CROSSOVERKID (6) is struggling to recapture the good form from last prep and if he did he'd be clearly the horse to beat but he should be at peak fitness now and can hit back. CONVO (9) hasn't run too many poor races of late, which is what made last start a surprise when dropping in grade, but she deserves another chance. READY BY DESIGN (3) was a big drifter last start but ran an improved race, going under by less than 2 lengths, and he's likely to race in a handy spot, which is a plus here. TRIPLE OH (8) is fitter now and placed in 64 grade at this trip last prep.

Second-up. First-up after five months 6th of 14 at Swan Hill Bm56 on March 15 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Second Fix with 62.5kg at $3. Previously second-up favourite; won by 4.5 len at Warrnambool Mdn-Sw September 22 over 2000m in soft going defeating Nicoffhome with 57kg at $1.95. Fitter for that run and expected to be in the finish this time.

Returns from a 39-day let-up. Last start 4th of 9 at Horsham Bm56 on February 24 over 1800m, 1.75 len behind Khant Bee with 62kg at $26. The start before that second last of 12 at Camperdown Bm56 on January 17 over 2200m, 14 len behind Wimmera Star carrying 62kg at $16. Poor two back but bounced back to a degree last time and draws to be prominent here.

Most recently second last of 9 at Echuca Bm56 on March 8 over 1600m, 25 len behind Positivo carrying 61.5kg at $21. Before that ran last of 10 at Seymour Bm66 on February 20 over 1600m, 22 len behind Savvie Blanc carrying 57.5kg at $61. Has been out of the money recently but finds the right race this time and gets his chance to feature.

Comes here off a 39-day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 11 at Horsham Bm56 on February 24 over 2100m, 2.25 len behind Initial Moment carrying 70.5kg at $8.50. The race before that 10th of 13 at Naracoorte Nara Cup (Bm78) on February 8 over 2000m, 9 len behind El James with 54kg at $91. Veteran who can make use of the good gate but doubt he's going well enough.
