FREE: Scone Cup Day

We head to Scone on Friday for the first day of their 2 day carnival. Track is currently rated a heavy 8 and we are expecting a great day of racing.

Scone R1 9. Bootscooter

Best effort come last prep over this track/trip finishing 2nd 0.5L after flying home when third-up. Resumed well and in good order. Draw is of assistance

1u at $5.5 with Topsport

Scone R2 5. Ultra

Going well this prep. Flew late over 900m at Newcastle first-up, then placed in tough company running time. Draw is ok, only one bend to deal with. Relishes the wet. Price is attractive

0.5u at $15 with Topsport

Scone R4 1. Egyptian Tycoon

Liked his debut win. He settled 2nd behind a slow speed, hit the front early and was too good running some slick late sectionals.

1.5u at $4.2 with Topsport

Scone R8

Going to back two runners here

2. Our Playboy

Rustic Steel got all favours last start up on a slow speed. Nice swing at the weights here for Our Playboy and don’t think Rustic Steel will get as many favours here. That looks a good form reference for this.

0.75u at $10 with Topsport
6. Art Cadeau

Backed him last start when he set up well. Pulled up lame, happy to forgive.

0.75u at $10 with Topsport
0.5u Quinella
