Eased early when 5.2m 6th $3.50 (Fr4) Exterminate Menangle 1609m (1:55.3) R6692 race Jul 6 then good run when 2.5m 2nd $14 (Sr2) Shannonstheman Bathurst 1730m (1:56.3) R6273 race Jul 17. Definte contender here on solid last start second in simillar company.

Race comment

Safely held when 11.7m 9th $41 (Sr1) Shannonstheman Bathurst 1730m (1:57.8) C2 race Jun 19 then good effort to place 0.4m 2nd $51 (Fr5) Our Sequel NZ Bathurst 1730m (1:57.1) R5866 race Jul 17. Third-up and has won 3rd-up in an earlier preparation.

Eased early when 17.5m 7th $51 (Fr5) Black Silhouette Menangle 1609m the MS-GP1 Nswb Challenge 4YO Mares (grp1) Jun 30 then tightened during running when 6.5m 5th $9.50 (Fr5) Shannonstheman Bathurst 1730m (1:56.3) R6273 race Jul 17. Minor excuses past couple and likely to find this easier; has drawn suitably and has claims on best form.

Race comment

Raced wide early when 5m 2nd $12 (Fr8) The Big Cheese NZ Newcastle 1609m (1:57.4) R6578 race Jul 1 then good run when 2m 2nd $10.00 (Fr4) Maximus Red Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R6176 race Jul 10. Drawn awkwardly but holding form well and worth an each way ticket.

Handy win $3.00 (Fr6) defeating Rain Man NZ 1.7m Newcastle 1609m (1:56.6) R5772 race Jul 1 then checked when beaten 14.2m 7th $16 (Fr5) Maximus Red Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R6176 race Jul 10. Unlucky last start and could threaten here on solid win two back.

Race comment

Commanding winner $3.40 (Fr1) over Bobby Street 14m Parkes 1660m (1:56.4) R5263 race Jul 7 then eased early when 23m 4th $31 (Fr6) Loyola Trios Dubbo 2120m (2:00.6) R5066 race Jul 14. Take on trust in this grade .

Race comment

Eased early and failed to get a clear run when 10.2m 6th $13 (Fr5) Lucky Iffy Bathurst 1730m (1:58.2) R5669 race Jul 3 then covered extra ground when 26m 6th $10.00 (Sr3) Loyola Trios Dubbo 2120m (2:00.6) R5066 race Jul 14. Place only.

Race comment

Used the sprint lane when 5.2m 4th $71 (Sr3) Maximus Red Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R6176 race Jul 10 then eased early and failed to get a clear run when beaten 12m 8th $81 (Fr8) Shannonstheman Bathurst 1730m (1:56.3) R6273 race Jul 17. One of the lesser chances.

Race comment

Raced wide early and tired over the latter stages when 38.5m 10th $126 (Fr3) Maximus Red Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R6176 race Jul 10 then out of position at the start when distanced 10th $126 (Fr3) Shannonstheman Bathurst 1730m (1:56.3) R6273 race Jul 17. Others in better form.

Race comment

Convincing winner $4.00 (Fr4) defeating Blaze Edition 9.5m Bathurst 1730m (1:56.9) R5159 race Jul 10 then safely held when 6.5m 3rd $6.00 (Fr4) Our Sequel NZ Bathurst 1730m (1:57.1) R5866 race Jul 17. Drawn poorly but racing well in weaker company and can't dismiss entirely.
