Race Tip

PUERTO BANUS (1) hit the frame two starts ago at Wyong but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 4. 5 lengths over 6f at Wyong. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. FEDERAL RESERVE (7) continued the great form last start, scoring by a long neck at Gosford over this trip. Leading player. AIMPOINT (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when eighth over 1m at Gilgandra three weeks ago. Aaron Bullock gets the best out of this six-year-old gelding. Won't find this as tough so he is a major player. ETCHED IN TIME (5) recorded a strong on-speed win last time by a nose over this journey at Nowra. In form and worth including.
