RACE 4: MAIDEN HANDICAP (1400m)

YANABAH (1) knuckled at the start and settled a clear last before making good ground in the straight when seventh to The One Time when resuming over 1000m at Tamworth on Apr 24.

JU TWO (2) was a handy second to Gold Melody when resuming on the heavy at Taree before a sixth to Skeptical here last start.
