Scone: Race 4 – Maiden Handicap (1300m)
No. 5 Astound Beauty

ASTOUND BEAUTY (5) resumes for David Pfieffer with some likable wet track form to her name. 

She handled soft tracks well when placing at Goulburn twice earlier in the year, and doesn’t appear out of place here over 1300m with a couple of trials to her name leading in.

Scone: Race 5 – Class 1 Handicap (1100m)
No. 2 Copperline
Tip of The Day

COPPERLINE (2) resumed well here over shorter last month, putting half a length between himself and his rivals after settling up on the speed in the early stages. 

He’s drawn to roll straight to the front again from barrier six and rates a key chance carrying 59kg again with some decent efforts on wet tracks to his name in the past.

Dual acceptor. Second-up. Promising on debut led but faded 3rd of 8 at Wyong Super Mdn-Sw on July 24 over 1000m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Wal’s Me Mate carrying 54kg at $3.40. Returned from break won by a long-neck at this track Mdn-Sw May 15 over 1000m defeating Flirtation carrying 59kg at $7.50. Still has scope for improvement and must be kept safe.

Scone: Race 7 – BM82 Handicap (1100m)
No. 2 Hellcibell

HELLCIBELL (2) saved her best for the finish here two weeks ago over longer, lapping up similar conditions to run on late for second. 

By Hellbent, she’ll love getting back in trip now with a stack of fitness on her side, and is drawn to receive every chance up on the speed with Mitch Bell sticking in the irons.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at this track Aberdeen on May 31 over 1300m, in the wet; nose behind Hulu with 56.5kg at $7.50. The start before that 5th of 13 at Gunnedah Lightning Bm85 on May 24 over 1000m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Chandon Star with 55.5kg at $6.50. Capable on her day and looks hard to beat on the back-up.

Scone: Race 8 – BM58 Handicap (1300m)
No. 5 Ode So Much
Each Way

ODE SO MUCH (5) gets in well with the 2kg claim.  

This lightly-raced son to Churchill is knocking on the door of another win, having found the placings in back to back starts since resuming.  

He’s drawn to find a stalking position off the speed early on and ticks a few boxes with a wet track expected.
