Tips and race-by-race guide for Narromine on Monday

Track good 4 and rail out 4m from 900m to 300m and true the remainder.

Race 1

8. Miss Rapide is a debutant filly by speed sire Supido in the Clint Lundholm stable at Dubbo. She can start her career with a bang despite drawing the outside barrier. Was good through the line in a recent trial in soft ground. 1. Brummagen is a tough improver looming to peak second-up and has enough tactical speed to off-set the wide draw. 4. Dendina is a natural market watch resuming for only her second start off a very long break and has trialled OK. 9. Parissident is very honest, placing in three of her last four runs. 7. Miss Karis, having her first run for the new Dubbo stable off a two-month break, and 10. Ufana, narrowly beaten in a weaker maiden when resuming, can both run into the minor money.

How to play it: Miss Rapide to win.

Race 2

3. Too Darn Lovely has superior tactical speed and will relish the drop back in trip to the flying short course. Easily beat a much better sprint field at Quirindi two starts ago before weakening late in deeper company at Muswellbrook three weeks ago. Gets the right sort of freshen-up and draws to zoom forward and lead them a merry dance, importantly back on firmer ground. 4. Charlie Magic is a tough sprinter which resumes with no public trials, but is in a good yard and can come to hand quickly. 6. Super Sioux is also well placed fourth-up from a handy on-speed draw and has won three from eight. 1. Cumboogle drops in grade and trip, but still has a task carrying a big weight with a rookie rider aboard from a wide draw. 9. Desirious bolted in over this short distance three starts back and has been competitive enough in two runs since. 2. Joanneski has won three on the bounce from off-speed, albeit against weak opposition. 7. Hard Too Impress, resuming with no official trials, and 8. Jo Jo Sun, well into his prep, both go in all wider exotic plays.

Race 3

8. Hefty Price is bursting to break through ahead of his 18th start, having placed nine times so far. Has been close up in his past three against better opposition, gets in light after the jockey’s claim, and significantly is on a seven-day back-up. 9. Bold Bender similarly is edging towards a breakthrough win deep into the prep, having placed eight times from 24 starts. 2. My Boy Scout improves sharply at his second start, with key gear changes. 3. Misrosa, a filly by Smart Missile, debuts behind a steady Dubbo trial, while 10. Tiny Missile is best the best of the rest third up from a handy trailing draw.
How to play it: Hefty Price to win.

Race 4

11. The Git Up draws off the track here, but is right at his top after four runs back. He placed in three of those with little or no luck in running. This is a suitable distance where he can settle back behind a solid tempo and be taken to the outside at the top of the straight. 8. Miss Madigan is an improving filly well placed fourth up. Disappointed at Tamworth as a well-backed favourite two starts ago, although found a very poor quality surface that day before close up in weaker company 16 days ago. 5. Twining Class draws wide, but comes back to a thinner race fifth up. 2. Hardhead also draws wide coming back in distance, but is fit with an each-way chance, along with 3. Major Lightning, which hit the line impressively second up in a deeper maiden, but has to overcome an awkward draw on a much tighter track.
How to play it: The Git Up to win.

Race 5

4. West Head is a progressive and tough three-year-old from a leading Dubbo stable that can go back-to-back fourth up. Failed to handle heavy ground in tougher provincial company before reloading in a handy super maiden over the mile at Coonamble and charged home late to score. Draws similarly here with a significant weight drop, and can take the next step. 7. Trust A Kitty hasn’t missed a place in three runs this prep, working home nicely from well off the speed, and only has to tuck in from a tricky draw to be in the finish. 10. Matildas Of Tuscany is an emerging filly that broke through in dominant fashion at her third start at Warren, but has to overcome a horror draw here on a much tighter circuit. 3. Jasper’s Way is building towards a second win in four starts after doing his best work late at Warren behind a hot favourite and dominant winner.
How to play it: West Head to win.

Race 6

2. Midnight Dream is a tough six-year-old that can peak second up at good odds despite drawing wide. Charged home from the back in a deeper race when resuming, and gets enough speed on here to be brought into the race past the 400m. 4. Champers Girl can run into the money back in grade from a better draw. 6. The Mooch is versatile and has been in and around the money all prep. 3. Pyromania is better suited here third up off a break after a poor effort in the Gulgong Cup. 8. Dupenny, having drawn the inside, and 10. Mythical Moochi, peaking third up, are the best of the rest.
How to play it: Midnight Dream to win.

Race 7

8. Kranich is a progressive four-year-old which can make it three wins from his last four starts in a very open affair. Powered home late to win two straight up to BM 58 grade before settling further back at Muswellbrook and charging home to run the winner to a long neck. Back in trip, but draws to get a softer run with a much stronger jockey taking over and can be saved up for one giant surge from the 350m. 9. Miss Clamorosa is a promising filly and obvious threat after destroying her Class 1 opposition three weeks back. 2. Deion stuck on OK fourth up in the feature and stronger Cannonball when exposed too early by the jockey. Back up sharply in weight for the drop in grade, and draws to get plenty of cover over a furlong further. 1. Starlink flashed home late at big odds when resuming in higher grade at Dubbo, but has a big weight here from a nightmare draw. 5. Divine Sinner is hard fit and ran home OK late in that Cannonball Sprint when solid enough in the market. Keep safe 10. Rebel Dreamer back on firmer ground off a month-long freshen. 3. Zenti, down in grade third-up, and 7. The Great Armada, who beat all bar the winner in the Gulgong Cup, are the best of the rest.

How to play it: Kranich to win.
