Provincial racing heads to the Central Coast of NSW as Wyong gets set to host a competitive eight-race program this Thursday. The rail is in the true position throughout the entire circuit, and with a minor chance of showers hitting the course, we anticipate the track sitting at a Soft 5 rating. The opening race is scheduled for 1:15pm local time.
Best Bet: Bo Katan
Bo Katan returns after a 210-day spell and looks prepared for a first-up assault for the Richard Litt barn. The son of Impending was unfortunate not to remove the maiden tag at the end of last preparation, going down by less than a half-length at Canterbury on July 12. He was crowded for room when trying to get clear and was hard held on the inside running rail. His barrier trials since have caught the eye, and with Chad Schofield likely to find a one-off spot from gate two, Bo Katan should get every chance to make amends.

Next Best: Counter
It’s hard to believe Counter is still yet to break his maiden status after 11 attempts, finding the minor money on seven occasions. His latest effort at Newcastle on January 27 was luckless as the four-year-old was cast wide throughout the 1850m, leaving him vulnerable in the concluding stages. Chad Schofield will have his work cut out for him from barrier eight in this compact field, but provided Counter can get any much-deserved luck in transit, this guy can finally finish off best at start 12.

Next Best Again: Jack Of Aces
Jack Of Aces was slowly away at Kembla Grange on December 30 and didn’t seem to appreciate the Heavy 10 conditions. It was still a bold effort when closing off into the minor money, but we were more impressed with his barrier trial since. It was a terrific piece of work at Warwick Farm on January 30, with the son of Xtravagant powering through the wire to score by a half-length. He only needs to recapture that form heading back to the races in order to figure in the finish.
