Penrith R3 Friend Civil Pace

Race comment

Raced well to place 3.5m 3rd $21 (Sr1) Elderberry Stride NZ Menangle 1609m (1:53.7) C2-C3 race Jun 11 then held on well when 11.5m 8th $41 (Fr4) Summit Special Menangle 1609m (1:50.7) C0-C10 race Jun 22. Unbeaten at 3 starts at this course and distance and only needs even luck from the second row draw to be featuring again.

Race comment

Eased early when 6.2m 3rd $3.50 (Fr8) Air Time Newcastle 2030m (1:55.8) C4-C6 race Jun 8 then ran 22.5m 10th $51 (Fr6) Summit Special Menangle 1609m (1:50.7) C0-C10 race Jun 22. Could fins this easier than at his last start and in the mix on useful previous form.

Finished 12.5m 10th $41 (Fr3) Eye See Diamonds Menangle 1609m (1:54.0) C4-C12 race Jun 1 then eased early when 9.2m 4th $23 (Fr5) Hows The Memory Penrith 1720m (1:57.2) C2-C5 race Jun 27. Not rating well enough.

Race comment

Ran 15.5m 4th $3.80 (Sr1) Shadow Eclipse Bankstown 1740m (1:56.9) C2-C3 race Jun 21 then raced wide early when 9.2m 6th $51 (Fr6) Alta Teresa NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.5) C4-C5 race Jun 27. Below par past couple but warrants respect consecutive wins prior.

Race comment

Convincing win over Make Mine Grange 9.5m $7.50 (Fr3) Penrith 2125m (1:58.1) C2 race Jun 20 then beaten 13.5m 7th $23 (Fr3) Mongolian Archer NZ Penrith 2125m (1:58.5) C2-C3 race Jun 27. Mixing form and need to take on trust.

Race comment

Back from a spell. Caught the eye defeating Blue Blazer NZ 6m $4.20 (Fr6) Newcastle 1609m (1:57.3) C2 race Feb 1 then handy effort when 7m 5th $4.80 (Fr5) Shanocon NZ Newcastle 2030m (1:58.1) C3-C5 race Feb 11. Resumes here but a winner of 3 from 5 fresh and has a suitable draw here; contender.

Race comment

Finished 12.2m 5th $8.50 (Fr4) Don Boston Menangle 1609m (1:52.7) claiming race Jun 25 then eased early when 15m 5th $26 (Fr6) Bettor To Be Tricky NZ Penrith 2125m (1:58.2) C6+ race Jun 27. Distance suits but place prospect only on recent form.

Race comment

Finished 32m 7th $12 (Fr3) Megs Monaro Bankstown 2140m (1:59.2) C4-C6 race Jun 21 then beaten 8.2m 5th $101 (Sr2) Alta Teresa NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.5) C4-C5 race Jun 27. May get minor money.

Race comment

Resuming. Held up for a run early in the straight when 6.5m 6th $7.50 (Sr2) Belligerence Penrith 2125m (1:59.2) C3-C5 race Apr 4 then beaten 15.7m 10th $19 (Fr1) Pay Me Overs NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.4) C4-C6 race Apr 11. Resumes here and has won fresh before but much earlier in his career.

Race comment

Finished 21.5m 6th $7.10 (Fr4) Charming Major NZ Canberra 2170m (1:59.8) C3-C4 race Jun 18 then handy win $14 (Fr3) over Cherokee Warrior NZ 2.7m Goulburn 1710m (1:57.2) C2 race Jun 24. Tougher here.
