Race comment

Raced wide late when 0.4m 2nd $10.00 (Sr3) All Good Young 2100m (2:02.3) R5055 race Aug 16 then checked when beaten 35m 7th $3.20 (Sr3) Threes A Charm Dubbo 2120m (2:01.5) R4855 race Aug 25. Had a genuine excuse last start and contender on solid previous form.

Race comment

Finished 9.2m 5th $26 (Fr1) Procurement Bathurst 2260m (1:58.8) R5054 race Aug 14 then beaten 8m 4th $34 (Fr4) Modern Metropolis Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R4955 race Aug 21. Tries hard but place preferred.

Race comment

Broke during running and suffered gear malfunction when 73.5m 10th $5.00 (Sr1) All Good Young 2100m (2:02.3) R5055 race Aug 16 then commanding winner $4.60 (Sr1) over The Rebel King 13.5m Dubbo 2120m (2:01.5) R4855 race Aug 25. Commanding winner in slightly weaker race last start and can't leave out.

Race comment

Held up for a run early in the straight when 8.5m 4th $81 (Fr5) Mishon Control Menangle 1609m (1:53.9) R4157 race Aug 6 then eased early when 15m 8th $81 (Fr5) Hurrikane Poker NZ Menangle 1609m (1:57.5) R4058 race Aug 13. Has winning form at this course and distance and has been somewhat unlucky at past three runs; suited here and could return to winning form with better luck in running.

Race comment

Ran 18.5m 9th $5.00 (Fr7) Watchoutnexttime Bathurst 1730m (1:56.5) R4955 race Aug 7 then led at the bell when 6.2m 3rd $10.00 (Fr3) Modern Metropolis Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R4955 race Aug 21. Has placed in two of his last three starts and could repeat.

Race comment

Caught the eye defeating Safely Under Wraps 4m $1.10 (Fr3) Bathurst 1730m (1:59.6) R4549 race Aug 7 then safely held when 9.5m 6th $6.00 (Fr5) Procurement Bathurst 2260m (1:58.8) R5054 race Aug 14. Mixed form this prep but fitter now and not out of it on solid win two back.

Race comment

Finished 2.2m 3rd $51 (Fr6) Young Cambo Forbes 1680m (1:59.8) C1 race May 5 then raced wide early and covered extra ground when 27.5m 8th $10.00 (Fr6) Tulhurst Writer Dubbo 1720m (2:00.8) R5055 race Aug 18. Might need few more runs to reach peak fitness.

Race comment

Handy effort when 4m 3rd $3.30 (Fr2) All Good Young 2100m (2:02.3) R5055 race Aug 16 then looked good defeating Caribbean Rocket 3.5m $1.60 (Fr2) Bathurst 1730m (2:00.4) 3R4451 race Aug 21. Racing consistently and has good stats at this track and distance; drawn poorly but stays in the mix.
