Wentworth Park Race 8

Mark Hughes Foundation

Stake: $12,932

JUNGLE JOHNNY (6) Resuming after a spell. Finished hard to win last run at this track in 29.0s over 520m and ideal trip as proven previously. Mark Gatt kennel are on fire recently. Worth a bet. TAW GALAXY (1) Honest race when 2nd last run at this track and has the ideal draw. Has been a model of consistency this prep. Likely threat. MAGIC BANDIT (5) Ran well when 2nd last time at this venue. Recent form of Jodie Lord is strong. In a purple patch of form this campaign. Worth an each way investment. MY PHARAOH (2) Left nothing to chance when winning last time around here and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Exhibiting good form since resuming from a break. Hard to knock and looks a nice each way proposition.

Bold effort to win last time at the track and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Performing honestly since returning from a break. Value play.

Jumped at $27.00 and disappointing effort when 8th last time at Q2 Parklands. Producing consistent results since returning from a spell. Can't recommend.
