Bathurst R6 STU VALENTINE 4 BLOODSTOCK INS 3YO PACE

Race comment

Good run when 1.5m 2nd $1.20 (Fr3) Lutzys Dream Bathurst 1730m (1:59.3) R4051 race Feb 2. Caught the eye with a close second on debut and could go one better here with natural improvement.

Race comment

Tightened during running and checked and broke when distanced 9th $4.80 (Fr1) Play Up A Storm Young 2100m (2:02.3) R4649 race Jan 21 then eased early when 10.7m 5th $45 (Fr8) Lutzys Dream Bathurst 1730m (1:59.3) R4051 race Feb 2. Unplaced in recent starts but has placed at this track and fitter for recent racing ; in the mix.

Race comment

Eased early and raced greenly when 36.5m 9th $71 (Fr6) Angel Shark Bathurst 1730m (1:56.6) 3R4853 race Jan 29. Well beaten on debut and might need more racing.

Race comment

Finished 7.7m 4th $5.00 (Sr1) A True Sensation Parkes 2040m (2:03.1) R3949 race Jan 26 then beaten 18.5m 6th $21 (Fr3) Dinosaurus Rex Bathurst 1730m (1:58.5) R4050 race Feb 2. Minor place preferred on overall form.

Race comment

Out of position at the start and checked and broke when 62.5m 8th $35 (Fr4) Lutzys Dream Bathurst 1730m (1:59.3) R4051 race Feb 2. Later perhaps.

Race comment

Raced wide early, inconvenienced and failed to get a clear run when 4m 3rd $8.50 (Fr4) Mister Wilbur Parkes 2040m (2:03.4) R3947 race Jan 26 then raced wide early when 26m 7th $8.50 (Fr4) Headline Hunter Parkes 2040m (2:03.1) R4147 race Feb 5. Mixing form lately and need to take on trust.

Race comment

Finished 33.5m 8th $12 (Fr3) Angel Shark Bathurst 1730m (1:56.6) 3R4853 race Jan 29 then raced wide early when 6.2m 3rd $4.40 (Fr5) Gotta Kick Bathurst 1730m (1:59.8) R3650 race Feb 2. Has placed in 6 of 10 career starts and worth an each way ticket.

Race comment

Hung in during the race when beaten 8.7m 5th $18 (Fr1) Karloo Bodacious Bathurst 1730m (1:59.6) 3R4755 race Dec 18. Raced ungenerously on debut and likely to have benefited from the run; keep very safe.

Race comment

Failed to get a clear run when 21m 8th $126 (Sr2) A True Sensation Parkes 2040m (2:03.1) R3949 race Jan 26 then beaten 20m 5th $71 (Fr3) Talk About Lexy Parkes 1660m (2:01.0) 3F3855 race Feb 5. Others look stronger.

Race comment

Broke during running when distanced 9th $41 (Sr5) Sporty Mickilla Parkes 1660m (2:01.1) R3550 race Jan 26 then beaten 36.5m 8th $126 (Sr3) Kalypso King Parkes 1660m (1:59.1) 3R4452 race Feb 5. Needs to lift.
