Penrith R3 Vintage Fm Pace

Race comment

First start since spell. Was a handy winner $1.90 (Sr1) defeating Hot Flush NZ 2.5m Newcastle 2030m (2:00.7) C1 race Aug 24 then covered a lot of extra ground and tightened during running when 47.5m 10th $2.40 (Sr4) Cloudin Up Penrith 1720m (1:57.3) C2-C3 race Sep 20. Coming off a break but has a very good fresh record (2-1-4) and proven in this distance range; has the figures to win this if ready.

Held up for a run early in the straight when 0.4m 2nd $2.40 (Fr1) Blue Moon Rising NZ Bankstown 1740m (1:59.0) R6072 race Jul 19 then eased early and raced wide late when 6.5m 7th $3.50 (Fr5) Attacknrhythm Penrith 1720m (1:57.2) R5769 race Aug 1. Had genuine excuse past couple and fitter now; ready to improve.

Race comment

Safely held when 6m 2nd $9.50 (Sr3) Overcharged NZ Penrith 1720m (1:58.5) R5059 race Aug 8 then raced wide early, failed to get a clear run and tightened during running when beaten 9.7m 8th $8.50 (Fr6) Jerada Gotta Major Penrith 1720m (1:58.5) R5470 race Aug 15. Mixing form lately but not out of it on useful second two back.

Race comment

Back from a spell. Eased early when 23m 9th $12 (Fr6) Dot Ayou Canberra 1770m (1:58.5) C1-C2 race May 21 then eased early and tired over the latter stages when 39m 8th $26 (Fr5) Courageous Becqui NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.1) C2-C3 race May 30. Back from a spell and he has placed 2 from 6 fresh; keep in mind.
