Exciting Snitzel three-year-old Bojack ($1.50 favourite on TAB) makes his second racetrack appearance when he steps out in the 1350m Class 1 Handicap at the Wyong race meeting on Thursday.
Raced by a group that includes John Messara and Gai Waterhouse and trained by Gai and Adrian Bott, Bojack had outstanding barrier trial form before a brilliant debut win at Gosford on February 4.
He has speed to burn and he ran the opposition off their legs. Tim Clark trialled Bojack, rode him at Gosford and he has the mount on Thursday.
Kim Waugh's 2yo The Bullring ($3.90) had no luck on debut at Scone on February 16 and he could atone in the 1300m 2yo Maiden Plate.
He was taken back to last from the wide barrier at Scone and made good ground over the 1000m. The longer trip is ideal and he has the home track advantage.
RACE 1, JIM BEAM CLASS 1 & MAIDEN PLATE, 2100M:
Just A Jedi ($2.40 fav) is up in class but he is a promising stayer. He raced away with a 1600m Gosford maiden last start and he has raced well on this track. What A Girl ($3.50) ran on well at her first run over a trip at Kembla last start and Karauna ($4.40) won well at Gosford.
SELECTIONS: 3 JUST A JEDI, 4 WHAT A GIRL, 6 KARAUNA
RACE 2, SKY RACING METRO & MAIDEN PLATE, 1350M:
Lady Of Luxury ($2.30 fav) finished down the course when favourite at Randwick last start, however, she was checked twice in running and had no luck. She was narrowly beaten at Randwick two starts back. Vanilla Sky ($5) is on debut after smart trial wins while California Cible's ($4.40) trials have been good.
SELECTIONS: 8 LADY OF LUXURY, 10 VANILLA SKY, 2 CALIFORNIA CIBLE
RACE 3, DE BORTOLI WINES 2YO MAIDEN PLATE, 1300M:
The Bullring ($3.90) had good trial form and he had no luck on debut at Scone recently. The extra trip is ideal and Jason Collett rides on the horse's home track. Wilsons Prom ($3.20 fav) has solid city form and he will be hard to beat while Gin Martini ($7) is trialling well.
SELECTIONS: 7 THE BULLRING, 8 WILSONS PROM, 9 GIN MARTINI
RACE 4, GREAT NORTHERN ON TAP MAIDEN HANDICAP, 1100M:
Zain's Girl ($2.90 fav) has had four starts for three placings and she resumes here after two recent trial wins. She's drawn well and has genuine speed and the in-form combination of Newnham and Parr. Siegen ($4) is on debut and trialled okay while Russbuss ($5.50) will be fitter this time.
SELECTIONS: 3 ZAIN'S GIRL, 7 SIEGE, 10 RUSSBUSS
RACE 5, BOOK NOW POLYTRACK PROVINCIAL CHAMPIONSHIPS WYONG MARCH 27 CLASS 1, 1350M:
