Canberra R5 J W O'sullivan & Sons Pace

Race comment

Held up for a run early in the straight when 20m 5th $23 (Fr1) Machkori Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:55.1) R6392 race Sep 7 then broke at the start when distanced 9th $151 (Fr6) Mister Magic Man Young 1720m (1:59.1) R4877 race Sep 13. Step up in distance could see an improved effort here.

Race comment

Hung in during the race and tired over the latter stages when distanced 8th $61 (Fr2) Deekays Dollar Leeton 1758m (1:57.1) C3-C5 race Jan 29 then tightened during running when 8.2m 4th $81 (Sr1) Mister Magic Man Young 1720m (1:59.1) R4877 race Sep 13. Ran a nice race first-up and should be fitter for the run.

Race comment

Finished 7.5m 4th $71 (Fr2) Molly Kelly Leeton 1758m (1:56.6) R6481 race Aug 27 then eased early when 40m 9th $43 (Fr4) Spunkyola Cobram 2170m (1:59.1) R5875 race Sep 15. Minor claims but could surprise.

Race comment

Raced wide late when 23m 7th $23 (Sr3) Maximus Red Cowra 2160m (2:02.9) R5678 race Sep 8 then sound effort when 5.7m 3rd $23 (Sr4) Convair Hustler NZ Young 2100m (1:58.9) R5778 race Sep 13. Useful run when 3rd at last start and should again have no trouble with the distance.

Race comment

Handy effort when 9.5m 2nd $17 (Sr1) Jeradas Delight Parkes 2040m (1:59.6) R5868 race Sep 15 then eased early when 17.7m 10th $34 (Fr7) Twentyeightblack Wagga Paceway 2270m (1:58.4) R6281 race Sep 20. Improved effort last start and looks ready to win again and drawn well here.

Race comment

Safely held when 6m 4th $61 (Sr1) Weona Luke Penrith 1720m (1:55.4) R6576 race Sep 12 then finished 28.5m 8th $15 (Fr1) Premier Joy Penrith 2125m (1:58.7) R6791 race Sep 19. Unplaced in recent starts but handles this track (12 wins) and could improve here.
