Race preview

Scone prepares for a competitive 1600m Maiden Handicap on a Good4 track under fine skies this afternoon at 2:00 pm AEDT. The win market has Reelflare heading the early betting boards, closely followed by Shanti, Moongleam, Post Mark, and Bosca Bullet rounding out the order. Fortune favours the bold here, and there is plenty of merit in looking closely at how this field maps out over the mile trip in fine conditions.

Reelflare sits at the top of the market for the stable of John O'Shea & Tom Charlton, coming off a strong runner-up finish at Kembla Grange over 1400m where Anna Roper takes the reins from barrier 3 with blinkers applied. Shanti is right there in the market for G Waterhouse & A Bott, drawn in barrier 5 with L P Beuzelin aboard, and brings plenty of early speed as a noted leader who stuck on well at Beaumont two runs back. Meanwhile, Moongleam represents the local interest from the P Messara & L Gavranich yard, drawn nicely in barrier 2 for Aaron Bullock after closing solidly for third over 1500m at Muswellbrook.

Further down the order, Post Mark jumps from barrier 4 for trainer S I Singleton and jockey Mitchell Bell, stepping up in trip after failing to threaten from the back half at Moree. The extra 1600m distance should suit this runner much better, especially with blinkers going on for the first time today. While the market points firmly to the top couple, the value sits with runners who can handle the step up in trip on a quick Scone surface without needing things entirely their own way.

AAP

Raced in back half and was never in a position to mount a serious challenge at Moree. Fancy the extra trip will suit.

ILB

Started at $2.10 and finished 8th last start at Moree. Should bounce back. Expected to be flashing home. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.

RP

Disappointing to see him finish eighth two weeks ago given market expectations (Moree) in a maiden; wears first-time blinkers; market vibes last time suggest he is capable of better so should not be ruled out.

RSIS

Was 11/10 and finished 8th last run at Moree. Likely to bounce back. Displays very good finishing pace. Has some claims.

AAP

Out the back, closed with raking strides in the 3yo+ Super Mdn at Kembla Grange at second appearance. Warrants attention.

ILB

Just short of the win last time at Kembla Grange. Will be trying to topple them late. Good tough competitor that can be supported.

RP

Beaten a neck over 7f at Kembla Grange (handicap) last month; warrants respect.

RSIS

Narrowly beaten last run at Kembla Grange. Can go through the gears. Commands respect.

AAP

Shown promise in limited runs. Forwardly placed, continued to stick on at Beaumont last start. Speedy. Will take a power of beating.

ILB

In the money when 2nd last run at Newcastle and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Should come to hand quickly. In fine form this campaign. Win bet the play today.

RP

Runner-up at Beaumont when 5-2 over 6½f (handicap) two weeks ago.

RSIS

Placed 2nd last time at Newcastle and showing consistent performance in races. Has shown early pace in races to date. Putting up notable efforts recently. Rates well against these.

Shown little to date. On pace but folded up quickly at Muswellbrook. Leaning towards others here.

ILB

Odds of $151.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 6th last run at Muswellbrook but has minimal work to do from the barrier. Would be more keen on the chances of others.

RP

Finished just behind Moongleam when sixth at Muswellbrook over 7½f (handicap) ten days ago; easy to oppose.

RSIS

Was 150/1 and weakened to finish 6th last time at Muswellbrook but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw.

Closed solidly but not quick enough at Muswellbrook 1 Nov. All the better, not out of it.

ILB

Solid effort when finishing 3rd last run at Muswellbrook and has a good draw. Jockey Aaron Bullock rates highly. Respect the betting.

RP

Turned in a solid effort in defeat ten days ago, when third at Muswellbrook upped to 7½f; this only her second start in handicap company; respected as seemingly there is more to come from this nicely bred daughter of The Autumn Sun.

RSIS

Showed a good turn of foot when 3rd beaten by just short of 2 1/2L last run at Muswellbrook and gets a favourable draw. Jockey Aaron Bullock rates highly. Can figure in the finish.

Not disgraced at Tamworth over today's trip at $12. Hard to warm to.

Got back, closed the race off solidly at Taree over this trip. Among the dangers again.

Backing up quickly. Close to a win last run at Goulburn and displaying improvement over the past few runs.

Failed to threaten at Kembla Grange second-up at double-figure odds. Has an adverse draw. Sharper now, remote place hope at best.

ILB

Disappointing outing when 7th last start at Kembla Grange.

RSIS

Subpar when 7th last start at Kembla Grange.

Odds correct as at . Odds can change.
