Bathurst R2 BURKES TRANSPORT PACE

Race comment

Safely held when 4m 4th $7.00 (Sr2) The Mustang Bathurst 1730m (1:57.6) R5668 race Feb 19 then eased early and covered extra ground when 8.5m 5th $8.00 (Fr8) Miss Fandango NZ Wagga Paceway 2270m (1:59.9) R5668 race Feb 28. Raced wide late last start; winner three back and has also won at this stage in the campaign previously; could repeat.

Race comment

Very impressive winner $1.50 (Fr4) over Terryrama 16.5m Young 1720m (1:57.0) R4959 race Feb 18 then out of position at the start when 9m 6th $2.20 (Fr7) Rock On Shadow Yarra Valley 1650m (1:56.7) R5260 race Mar 2. Usually thereabouts and worth an each way ticket.

Race comment

Back from a spell. Looked good defeating The Ethletic 2m $3.20 (Fr7) Bathurst 2260m (2:01.1) R4852 race Dec 13 then handy win $1.60 (Sr1) defeating Kyle Shannon 1.5m Bathurst 1730m (1:57.3) R4950 race Dec 18. Back from a spell and watch the betting.

Race comment

A comfortable winner $4.00 (Sr2) defeating Snoop Stride 11.5m Parkes 2040m (2:00.5) R4655 race Feb 23 then raced wide early when 6.5m 4th $41 (Fr3) Lucky Nutter Bathurst 2260m (1:59.1) R5570 race Mar 4. Could run another useful race here.

Race comment

Eased early and checked when 16.5m 5th $9.00 (Fr6) Rockn And Rolln Bathurst 2260m (1:58.4) R5870 race Feb 12 then eased early when 13.7m 8th $41 (Fr6) Bettor Jiggle Bathurst 1730m (1:54.7) R5769 race Feb 26. Drawn the pole position and in the mix on sound form prior to past couple excusable runs.

Race comment

Won easily defeating Borders Man 7.5m $7.00 (Sr3) Penrith 2125m (2:00.2) R5667 race Feb 13 then out of position at the start and eased early when 20.5m 9th $10.00 (Fr8) The Mustang Bathurst 1730m (1:57.6) R5668 race Feb 19. Can't ignore on consecutive wins prior to last start unplaced run in stronger company.

Race comment

Resuming from a spell. Raced roughly when 3.2m 2nd $2.00 (Fr2) Major Comment Eugowra 2100m (2:01.0) R4258 race Sep 29 then tightened during running, inconvenienced and checked and broke when beaten 14.7m 7th $10.00 (Fr1) Redbank Cooper Eugowra 2100m the GROUP3 Canola Cup (grp3) Oct 7. Drawn poorly but goes well fresh and in this distance range; contender.
