AU2 - Hamilton - Race 5

OUT TO STAY (5) comes here following a eighth behind Brooklyn Dan at Listed level nine days ago over 1 ¹/16m at Melton. Ideally placed to return to form. KEAYANG SIMBA (3) opened his career in the best possible manner last start, scoring by one metre over 1 5/16m at Terang as the favourite. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field so he can keep the ball rolling. HAPPENSTBABEACHBOY (7) is better than his last-start ninth over 1 ¹/16m at Ballarat. ANOTHER WOODS (9) scored on debut last start despite galloping, getting home by 5 metres over 1 ¹/16m at Mt Gambier. Shouldn't spend a penny from this draw and the sprint lane may come in handy. Facing a tougher assignment but another big run is likely.
