Race Tip

YOTOTSU (2) started at 7/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing eighth and beaten 6 lengths at Scone over 1m. Finds an easier assignment and can make amends. CONTRIVED (1) settled well back last start and never threatened when 8 lengths from the winner in 11th over 6f at Inverell. Likely improver with strong prospects. THE HULKBUSTER (9) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 6f at Warren. Faces an easier assignment so he is perfectly placed to score. CELTIC HARP (3) was beaten 2.5 lengths into seventh in a 6½f contest at Bathurst two weeks ago. No surprise to see him in the mix.
