Menangle R6 Macarthur Fc (Grp3)

Race comment

Covered extra ground when 5m 5th $12 (Fr8) Loorrim Creek Menangle 1609m (1:50.4) C8+ race Jun 30 then handy win $21 (Fr7) over Loorrim Creek 2.2m Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Lazarus At Yirribee FFA (grp3) Jul 6. Has a horror draw here but stays in the mix on last start win in similar company.

Raced wide early when 3m 4th $4.00 (Fr7) Letspendanitetogetha NZ Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Golden Mile (grp3) Jun 15 then eased early when 5m 4th $41 (Fr6) Majordan Menangle 1609m the GROUP1 Tab Len Smith Mile (grp1) Jun 30. Fitter for recent runs and goes well fifth up; this easier than last start and can return to winning form.

Won $6.50 (Fr2) narrowly defeating Code Black NZ 0.2m Menangle 1609m (1:50.4) C8+ race Jun 30 then good run when 2.2m 2nd $10.00 (Fr8) Courtsinsession Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Lazarus At Yirribee FFA (grp3) Jul 6. Recent form consistent including a last start narrow defeat in similar grade of race; respect.

Was a handy winner $3.80 (Fr10) defeating Pay Me Sam 1.7m Menangle 2300m (1:54.3) M0-M1 race Jun 22 then fought on very well when 1.5m 3rd $4.40 (Fr4) Loorrim Creek Menangle 1609m (1:50.4) C8+ race Jun 30. Has found form again but each way preferred from this draw.

Finished 7m 4th $19 (Fr2) Courtsinsession Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Lazarus At Yirribee FFA (grp3) Jul 6 then covered extra ground when 14.5m 6th $10.00 (Fr3) Tiger Tara NZ Menangle 2300m (1:54.7) R82120 race Jul 13. Fitter for two recent runs from a spell and proven third up.

Race comment

Beaten 12.2m 4th $2.70 (Fr1) San Domino Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:55.8) M0+ race May 11 then was a handy winner $2.90 (Fr9) over Rakarolla NZ 2m Menangle 2300m (1:54.2) R83115 race Jul 13. First up winner last start and goes well second up ( 3 from 4); up to this grade and contender from a low draw.

Race comment

Finished 5m 2nd $5.50 (Fr9) Raukapuka Ruler NZ Menangle 1609m (1:51.7) M1 race Jun 30 then ran 11.5m 7th $7.50 (Fr3) Courtsinsession Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Lazarus At Yirribee FFA (grp3) Jul 6. Hard to fancy here.

Race comment

Eased early when 12.7m 5th $10.00 (Fr10) Raukapuka Ruler NZ Menangle 1609m (1:51.7) M1 race Jun 30 then broke at the start when 17.7m 9th $34 (Fr1) Courtsinsession Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Lazarus At Yirribee FFA (grp3) Jul 6. Minor role but only.

Race comment

Finished 7m 3rd $16 (Fr6) Jilliby Bandit Menangle 2300m (1:54.6) C6+ race Jun 22 then beaten 10.5m 6th $51 (Fr5) Courtsinsession Menangle 1609m the GROUP3 Lazarus At Yirribee FFA (grp3) Jul 6. Take on trust.

Finished 18m 8th $21 (Fr3) Majordan Menangle 1609m the GROUP1 Tab Len Smith Mile (grp1) Jun 30 then fought on well defeating Replaced Eye 0.1m $2.80 (Fr7) Menangle 1609m (1:52.0) R71120 race Jul 6. Gets a wide draw here but can't dismiss on recent winning form.

Race comment

Raced wide early, tightened during running and had a flat tyre when 10.7m 5th $3.30 (Fr7) No Apachemee NZ Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:56.6) claiming race Jun 15 then caught the eye defeating Dikerry NZ 3m $1.80 (Fr5) Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:57.6) C6792 race Jul 6. Place prospect only in this grade.
