Tamworth Tips

Can’t imagine one of the top two not winning. GRANDINI disappointed when placing as favourite last start at Dubbo but has three placings from three runs this prep, a close top selection. PARKRUN ran sixth at only start at Newcastle on a soft track, in the mix. STORM PARK ran sixth at only start at Mudgee, sneaky chance. TAIPAN LEGEND in the money last start running third at Mudgee and has two placings from four runs this prep, strong place chance.

JUDGE JACK has won or placed in both races so far and has won at Tamworth before, commands respect. TAVROS winner at Tamworth and placed once this campaign but placed as a favourite last start at Gunnedah, could upset. OLLIE'S SECRET was a winner last start at long odds at Armidale and should race on the speed, don't dismiss. ZOFFANY'S GAZE goes well at Tamworth and gets a nice run behind a genuine tempo, dangerous.

KANTISHNA first-up after 20 week spell, hard to go past. GIGATON resumes from a 17 week spell and generally strong first-up, don't dismiss. TAKEOVER LAD placed last start at Armidale when first up and soft draw, each-way claims. BY LINDA failed to win as a favourite last start at Quirindi when first up and gets the blinkers back on, place chance.

Ratings suggest top selection will be too good. PENINSULA placed when fresh and finished in the middle of the pack last start at Armidale, serious player. MYALABY just missed as favourite last start at Gunnedah when fresh and goes up in trip, chance to place. RONNY BEE just missed at long odds at only start at Dubbo on a soft track, place hope. XERXES on debut and won one of two trials, needs the breaks.

MYSTERY LAD in strong form with two wins from nine attempts this campaign and has very strong form at Tamworth, commands respect. MARKWELL DREAMER has outstanding form at this track and racing back from the city, not without each-way claims. WHO GOES THERE has multiple wins at Tamworth and won all previous races as a favourite, don't dismiss. YUKAN ROSE led all the way to win last start at Newcastle on a soft track, looks threatening.

LIGHTNING SPEED placed last start at Mudgee and won once this prep at Tamworth two runs back, well placed. ARRABBIATA drawn ideally, could upset. NEED A MIRACLE in the money last start running second at Armidale and should run fitter for past attempts, looks threatening. DEEBO has three placings from three runs this prep and gets the blinkers back on, each-way claims.

TORNADO EXPRESS won last start at Tamworth and two from three wins have been in the dry, will take the power of beating. CRIMSON BONNET back from 12 week let-up and resumes well running third at Scone when last first-up, place only. UP THE COUNTRY coming off a win at Gunnedah when resuming and rates highly with Clayton Gallagher retaining the ride, strong place chance. ACOTANGO has very strong form at Tamworth and won once this prep at the track 10 runs back, capable of getting into the money.
