Penrith R4 Darling River Pace

Race comment

Finished 7.7m 4th $26 (Sr1) My Ruebe Star NZ Penrith 2125m (1:58.5) R5667 race Jul 4 then covered extra ground when 3.5m 4th $5.00 (Sr2) Sals Luck Penrith 2125m (1:59.4) R5665 race Jul 11. Drawn awkwardly but stays in the mix on useful current form.

Failed to get a clear run when 10.7m 6th $3.00 (Sr1) Dream Playgirl Penrith 2125m (2:01.0) R5157 race Jul 4 then was a handy winner $16 (Sr2) defeating Star Major 1.5m Penrith 1720m (1:55.2) R4957 race Jul 11. Last start winner and fitter again; respect.

Tightened during running when 4.2m 3rd $3.20 (Fr1) Clementsorrell Goulburn 1710m (1:57.2) C2 race Jun 24 then eased early and failed to get a clear run when beaten 12m 7th $12 (Fr4) Hows The Memory Penrith 1720m (1:57.2) C2-C5 race Jun 27. Treat warily on recent form.

Tightened during running, had a flat tyre and raced roughly when 38.5m 8th $23 (Sr2) My Ruebe Star NZ Penrith 2125m (1:58.5) R5667 race Jul 4 then beaten 7m 7th $5.50 (Fr4) Sals Luck Penrith 2125m (1:59.4) R5665 race Jul 11. Chance if able to find best form.

Handy win $5.50 (Fr4) over Casino Comedy 2.5m Penrith 2125m (2:01.0) R5157 race Jul 4 then eased early when 21m 3rd $19 (Fr5) Backintown Penrith 1720m (1:56.5) R5362 race Jul 11. Had a minor excuse last start and contender on her win at this course and distance two back.

Race comment

Held on well when 4.7m 4th $13 (Fr1) Miss Halfpenny Menangle 1609m (1:55.0) 3C0-3C5 race Jun 22 then safely held when 10m 4th $34 (Fr6) No Win No Feed Menangle 1609m the 3F-GP1 Nswb Challenge 3YOF (grp1) Jun 30. Likely leader from this draw and could be hard to run down.

Race comment

Tired over the latter stages when 71.5m 9th $5.00 (Fr2) Our Sohoe Penrith 2125m (1:56.8) C3-C5 race Jun 13 then eased early when 23.5m 7th $71 (Fr5) Times Stride NZ Menangle 1609m (1:54.2) R5366 race Jul 9. Below par in recent starts but has had excuses; not out of it on sound previous form.

Race comment
