I’m confident that Distant will break her maiden second-up at Tamworth this afternoon.
The Outreach filly returned a couple of decent efforts last year and returned with an eye-catching effort to only just miss here a fortnight ago.
With natural improvement, I can’t find a reason why she won’t be in the finish, and she is my best bet of the day.
Show Me Your Love takes winning form into the third at Tamworth today and looks well placed to make it two in a row.
The daughter of So You Think is beginning to amass a lovely record, winning three of eight starts and finishing second a further two times – finding form around some quality country gallopers.
Fitter third-up today and with options from the rails draw, something like this does look the next logical step!
He has been charged with lugging a decent topweight, but Oakfield Prince is just the best horse in this race in my opinion, and I am pretty confident in his chances.
Formerly trained by Damien Lane, Oakfield Prince was a typically competitive performer last time in, and he ended his prep with a couple of decent efforts in Country Championships Qualifiers.
He’s a winner at this point of his preparation previously, and he’s had the benefit of a couple of trials leading up to his return.
Perennial was an impressive winner on debut and can keep alive his unbeaten record today at Tamworth.
The Mikki Isle gelding showed promise at the trials prior to debuting and put the writing on the wall with an easy win in the two-year-old feature at Muswellbrook earlier this month.
With improvement for that experience, he can continue his rise through the grades.
