Bathurst R3 Sky Racing Active Pace

Race comment

Raced wide early and covered extra ground when 1.5m 2nd $19 (Fr6) Convair Hustler NZ Parkes 1660m (1:59.0) R4960 race Jul 21 then sound effort when 1.5m 4th $1.80 (Fr2) Frankies Tooth Parkes 2040m (2:02.4) R5660 race Aug 2. Usually thereabouts and stays in the mix for multiples.

Good run when 3.7m 2nd $4.40 (Sr1) Peggyville Dubbo 2120m (1:59.5) R5265 race Jul 28 then looked good defeating Tulhurst Writer 3.5m $2.60 (Fr1) Bathurst 1730m (1:58.9) R4854 race Jul 31. Improved efforts at past two runs and warrants respect from a soft draw here.

Failed to get a clear run when 17.2m 6th $12 (Sr2) Majoress Jujon Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:57.3) R4471 race Jul 12 then easy winner $3.40 (Fr1) defeating Gumly Grey 8m Wagga Paceway 2270m (1:58.5) R4954 race Jul 22. Can't ignore following last start strong performance in weaker company.

Finished 22.5m 10th $71 (Fr2) Black Silhouette Menangle 1609m the MS-GP1 Nswb Challenge 4YO Mares (grp1) Jun 30 then finished 12m 3rd $3.40 (Sr1) Majoress Jujon Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:57.3) R4471 race Jul 12. Improved effort last start and suited at this distance range; solid winning chance this grade.

Used the sprint lane when 6.5m 3rd $26 (Fr1) Mymatepog Bathurst 1730m (1:55.9) R6177 race Jul 31 then beaten 20m 5th $26 (Fr1) Hes Chiming Bathurst 1730m (1:54.3) R5978 race Aug 7. Not hopeless on current form.

Raced well to place 0.4m 3rd $26 (Sr2) Attacknrhythm Penrith 1720m (1:57.2) R5769 race Aug 1 then raced wide early when 4.5m 2nd $41 (Fr5) Flyin Circles NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.8) R6068 race Aug 8. Drawn awkwardly but racing consistently and a definite danger.

Out of position at the start when 15.5m 9th $41 (Sr4) Mymatepog Bathurst 1730m (1:55.9) R6177 race Jul 31 then used the sprint lane when 16.5m 2nd $61 (Sr4) Hes Chiming Bathurst 1730m (1:54.3) R5978 race Aug 7. Likely to find others better.
