AU1 - Cobram - Race 8

ANIMADO (2) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1 ¼m at Gunbower, finishing second and just 1.5 metres from the winner. Has the benefit of a good draw. Stepping up a level this time, but on his best form, he is capable of another big performance. BIG BAD OSSIE (6) is a strong fresh performer back after a spell of five-and-a-half months. Opened last prep with a fine win over 1 m at Shepparton. Has the right credentials to play a major role. LA CAVALLETTA (9) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at Riverina Paceway over 1 ¹/16m. Include in all combinations. GOOD TOBE LOCKSLEY (3) is worth some thought despite his last-start sixth over 1 5/16m at Shepparton on December 2. Each way value this time.
