Gunnedah Race 6

Courthouse & Railway Hotel 1-4 Win Ht 2 H

Stake: $2,495

BARACK EXPRESS (6) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (19.58) at Bulli. Form from his last run is proving very strong. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. MR. MUNRO (4) was below best at his last start when 8th at this track following a third place finish (19.93) there two back. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. The form from his last run stacks up well. Expected to give a good account. MAKE YOUR STAND (2) produced a moderate run last time when sixth at The Gardens over 400m behind Golden Book (23.47) in a Grade 5. Should be about the money. TRACTOR SAM (7) is in the mix following a brief let-up.

Placed only run here over this trip. Latest effort finished 6th in a Grade 5 on May 16 over 400m at The Gardens behind Golden Book beaten 11 lengths (23.47). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 340m at this track. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Missed the frame last start when a 12 length eighth (20.61) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.

Had been in consistent form with three minors on end before missing the frame last start when fourth (20.59) at this track. Tricky draw to overcome and looks safely held.

Did a good job two starts back at Tamworth to win by 4 lengths in 20.23, beating Kingsbrae Maggie. Last start finished last on April 30 over 340m at this track behind Irish Miss beaten 11 lengths (20.78) in a Grade 5. Capable of taking this out.
