Tamworth Race 4

Jack Driscol Memorial

Stake: $2,860

JAMAICA RUM (1) is having his first look at this course. In the money last start when third (20.21) at Gunnedah over 340m. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Expected to feature in the finish again. VALLEY CASH (2) comes off an average performance last start when sixth at Muswellbrook over 336m behind Bandit Millie (20.16) in a Grade 5. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. GUS AND DODO (5) resumed in a Grade 5 at Muswellbrook and ran into the frame when second over 336m (19.72). Sure to be fitter. Leading player again. POPPY LANE (8) is a last-start placegetter out of the same box - worth considering.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th in a Grade 5 on March 26 over 340m at Gunnedah behind Blazing Leo beaten 24 lengths (21.71). Placed two back at Gunnedah. The form from the last run stacks up nicely. Worth following up.
