2.Matt Scott (Charlie El): “Good form. Better draw. Place chance.”
3Gary Hall Snr (Liam Neil): “Trialled well. Winning chance but he might need the run. If he leads I think he’s a certainty.”

7.Kyle Harper (Black Jack Zac): “Racing well. Still waiting for a draw.”
9.Gary Hall Snr (Tuas Delight): “Form not too bad. Just needs a barrier draw.”
10.Michael Grantham (Crocodile Kid): “Went well last week. Perfect draw. If he gets the splits he will be dangerous late.”
RACE 2 – LUGARNO GUMBY PUNTERS CLUB PACE
1.Matt Scott (Qtown Rip Roaring): “Shannon has got options so we will leave it to him.”
2.Michael Grantham (Jilliby Jake): “If he had have drawn one he would have been a good chance. Don’t know the one will want to hand up. We will have a look early.”
4.Chris Voak (The Party Boy): “Awkward draw. Novelty chances.”
5.Nathan Turvey (Jack William): “Work forward. Don’t know if he will get the top. The hood goes on so he will run along.”
8.Aldo Cortopassi (Art Tutor): “Chance to get the breeze this week. We will go forward.”
11.Gary Hall Snr (Mister Bushido): “If he drew the front row he’d be a big chance. Each way chance and if they go hard he’s a winning chance.”
RACE 3 – COMMUNITY TAB PACE
1.Gary Hall Snr (Extreme Prince): “If he led he’s a chance. Leading is his go.”
3.Matt Scott (Always Arjay): “Sectionals are okay. Needs luck.”
4.Matt Scott (Rock Me Over): “He will go forward. Hasn’t had luck. He’s ready to run a big race.”
5.Aiden De Campo (Baylan Jett): “Racing really well. Each way hope with some racing luck.”
6.Ross Olivieri (Jimmy Mack): “Awkward draw. He’s a chance though. Went well last start.”
8.Jocelyn Young (Bracken Sky): “Racing well. Place chance with a genuinely run race.”
9.Kim Prentice (Galante): “Going well. If they run along he’s each way at a big price.”
10.Shannon Suvaljko (Mattjestic Star): “Won well in front last start. Good trailing draw. If the one holds up this week he’s a place chance.”
11.Nathan Turvey (Carter Micheal): “Same field as last week. Won’t be behind the leader though. If it’s run to suit he can be dangerous. The hood goes on.”
RACE 4 – MONDO DORO ITALIAN FIREWORKS NIGHT – FRIDAY DECEMBER 4 PACE
1.Chris Voak (Anime): “Perfect draw. Gives him a chance to earn.”
2.Nathan Turvey (Rakasinc): “Hope he leads. He will push forward. Anything crosses him then they’ll be taken on.”
3.Michael Grantham (Forgotten Highway): “Might be run in Indian file. We will slot over to the rail. He’s a good sit and kick horse.”
4.Gary Hall Snr (Sir Galahad): “He went super last week. Winning chance again. He’s got the equal chance of My Carbon Copy. If the two leads he will be hard to beat.”
6.Michael Brennan (Braeview Bondi): “Tough from the draw. Will go back and hope for a genuine tempo.”
8.Gary Hall Snr (My Carbon Copy): “He was pretty good last week. Did work behind Bully and he wasn’t in his comfort zone. He’s a chance of winning again.”
RACE 5 – WA TROTTING MEDIA GUILD CUP
1.Aiden De Campo (Shockwave): “Should lead. On his last start he should prove hard to beat.”
2.Colin Brown (Chiaroscruo): “Look for a cute run.”
3.Greg Bond (Our Jimmy Johnstone): “Place chance.”
4.Mark Johnson (Bletchley Park): “Massive last week. With some speed on he will be right in it.”

2.Gary Hall Jnr (The Verandah): “Place chance.”
3.Ryan Bell (Radiant Amber): “More than capable sit and sprint mare. Racing below par at the moment. Finding a way not to finish off and there’s no obvious explanation.”
4.Kim Prentice (Soho Hamilton): “Rob Watson said he had good gate speed. I’m frightened if I use him out of the gate he won’t settle. Most probably we will light him up.”
6.Shannon Suvaljko (The Last Drop): “Going well. Difficult draw. Keep an eye on him in the future from a better draw.”
7.Michael Grantham (Major Shard): “Awkward draw. He was good last Saturday.”
9.Greg Bond (Be My Rock): “Tough draw but he’s not out of it.”

9.Greg Bond (Intheskyrocket): “Drawn poorly but racing well.”
11.Justin Prentice (Broadbeach): “This will be a test tomorrow night. I don’t know her well enough because she only does what she has to at home. She does have a motor that suggests she could do a bit of work.”
12.Aiden De Campo (Some Copper Beach): “Awkward draw for her. Each way.”
RACE 8 – BEAU RIVAGE RESTAURANT REOPENS NOVEMBER 6 PACE

4.Greg Bond (J B Mauney): “Same as Flying Mister Ideal. Top three with a good beginning.”

8.Greg Bond (Our Alfie Romeo): “Strong chance.”
RACE 10 – WWW.GLOUCESTERPARK.COM.AU PACE
1.Aldo Cortopassi (Roman Aviator): “Hold up definitely. Good last week.”
2.Justin Prentice (Always An Honour): “Should be able to be on the fence. Will need the run. He’s worked well at home.”
3.Micheal Ferguson (Waylade): “Better draw for him. Quality field again. If he’s going as well as I think he is then he should be right in this.”
4.Colin Brown (Patrickthepiranha): “Wasn’t going to go forward last start then no one went forward. We will play it by ear. His fitness has improved dramatically.”
5.Greg Bond (El Jacko): “Nice return. Not without a winning chance.”

5.Greg Bond (Jett Star): “Quality horse. Good hope.”
