Leeton R5 Norm Johnson Memorial

Race comment

Was a handy winner $3.70 (Fr3) over Ima Regal Jet 3.2m Cobram 1670m (1:59.1) R4448 race Jul 10 then raced well when 10.2m 5th $10.00 (Sr2) Illinois Beauty Leeton 1758m (2:00.0) R4755 race Jul 16. Drawn well and stays in contention on sound win two back.

Inconvenienced when 18.5m 7th $61 (Fr5) Obe Joyfull Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:59.3) R4254 race Jul 5 then eased early when 26m 8th $41 (Fr5) Sokys Falcon Leeton 1758m (1:59.8) R4149 race Jul 16. Not racing well enough.

Finished 20m 4th $5.50 (Sr1) Sokys Falcon Leeton 1758m (1:59.8) R4149 race Jul 16 then finished 12.7m 6th $21 (Fr1) Blues Terror Wagga Paceway 2270m (1:58.9) R4550 race Jul 22. Has a modest win record but has won here in the past.

Race comment

Tightened during running and inconvenienced when 36m 5th $5.00 (Fr2) Mist You Leeton 1758m (1:59.4) C0 race Jun 15 then beaten 31.5m 5th $21 (Fr5) Mist You Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:57.8) C0 race Jun 21. Could figure in placings.

Race comment

Covered extra ground when 10m 8th $12 (Sr3) Hilly Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:58.7) C0-C1 race Jun 21 then beaten 22m 5th $4.00 (Fr6) Lenas Art Albury 2170m (2:04.9) R3948 race Jul 9. Failed to flatter despite backing at her last start but can improve.

Race comment

Solid effort when 9m 6th $17 (Fr1) Shanks For Coming Leeton 2147m (2:03.6) R5061 race Jul 16 then finished 28m 6th $51 (Fr3) Nobbys Clock Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:54.9) R4555 race Jul 19. Well beaten at his last start but placed three starts back and could take advantage of his good gate speed here.

Race comment

Sound effort when 7.7m 5th $41 (Sr1) Obe Joyfull Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:59.3) R4254 race Jul 5 then ran 35.5m 12th $81 (Sr1) First Prize Wagga Paceway 2270m (1:59.5) R4653 race Jul 12. Back in distance and that could help.

Race comment

Finished 15.5m 7th $55 (Fr4) Shame To Fame Cobram 2170m (2:02.6) R4850 race Jul 10 then raced wide early, raced wide and tired over the latter stages when 42m 10th $101 (Sr3) Sokys Falcon Leeton 1758m (1:59.8) R4149 race Jul 16. Lacks appeal.

Race comment

Eased early when 18m 5th $51 (Fr5) Conrod Kenze Leeton 1758m (1:59.9) R4250 race Jul 2 then tired over the latter stages when 59.5m 8th $12 (Sr1) Shame To Fame Leeton 1758m (1:58.9) R4954 race Jul 16. Looks vulnerable here.

Race comment

Finished 23.5m 10th $61 (Sr3) Hells Confession Leeton 1758m (2:02.5) R4551 race Jul 16 then eased early when 17m 9th $126 (Fr7) Blues Terror Wagga Paceway 2270m (1:58.9) R4550 race Jul 22. Form lacking at present.
