The Rodney Robb, Nyngan trained Security Code has only started 14 times but has already won four races including the recent Picnic Cups at Tottenham and Bourke and between those wins was second behind smart galloper Kyrgios in a big field at the Coonamble TAB meeting.

Talented jockey Maddison Wright is travelling from the south coast to ride Security Code for Rodney Robb who last won the Bedgerabong Picnic Cup with Azarax in 2014.

Trained at Harden by Mark Cummins, Sergeant Bilko, winner of nine races from 75 starts, was runner-up to Security Code at Bourke and will have the NSW Picnic Jockeys premiership winner Ricky Blewitt from Narromine in the saddle.

A noted front runner, Sergeant Bilko won the recent Tullibigeal Cup for the second year in succession and this season has also finished second in the Picnic Cups at Trangie,Condobolin,Crookwell and Bourke.

Canberra jockey Samara Johnson rode four winners at the Trangie Picnics and at Bedgerabong is booked for the Scott Spackman, Wagga Wagga trained Black Fusion,a 7 times winner with over $100,000 prizemoney to date. Black Fusion was a good second in the recent Cootamundra Picnic Cup.

Brett Thompson from Gulgong, winner of the Central Districts Trainers premiership, won the 2015 Bedgerabong Picnic Cup with Saturlina and this year has the well performed Fairisle Miss engaged.

In supporting races on the six-event card, Forbes trainer Dennis Bush has good winning chances with Wordly Wise, Fettlers Boot and Miss Sakkara while another Forbes trainer Bob Wenning can expect a good run from Zarperu after a close second at Tomingley Picnics last week.
