Stawell Race 4

Congratulations On Life Membership Ian Nicholson (Bm64)

Stake: $38,500

HYDROGEN POWER (3) struggled last time at Seymour but had been around the mark prior and he is handy on his day. If Meech can get him to land closer from an inside draw he'll run well. ITSUKUSHIMA (1) is finding it hard to win but take out last start at Sale and he's going well. This track should suit his on-speed racing pattern. ARTPARK (6) won easily in BM58 company at Swan Hill last time out and has to be respected. TIMEONLEES (10) should be ready to peak now third up.
