Menangle R1 TAB ODDS & EVENS PACE

Race comment

Back from a spell. Covered extra ground and raced wide late when 0.2m 2nd $3.00 (Sr1) Acoltnamedsu Penrith 1720m (1:59.5) R3955 race Dec 12 then hung in during the race when beaten 6.7m 5th $5.50 (Sr3) My Ultimate Louie Bathurst 1730m (1:57.2) R5052 race Dec 26. Lightly raced runner back from a spell; showed ability in his initial campaign and could run well if primed for this.

Failed to get a clear run when 14m 8th $41 (Fr2) Miss Streisand NZ Menangle 1609m (1:52.6) R5268 race Feb 25 then raced wide early when 7.7m 4th $10.00 (Fr8) Wahs Fire Bug NZ Menangle 1609m (1:53.2) R4770 race Mar 10. Fitter for two recent runs and showed improvement last start; proven this track and distance and can win this with further improvement.

Eased early when 13.7m 6th $31 (Fr9) Katchar Shoobee Menangle 1609m (1:53.7) 3R4754 race Mar 10 then checked at the start when 32m 6th $21 (Fr1) Rockin With Elvis Menangle 1609m (1:53.0) 3R4756 race Mar 17. Goes well from this draw and among the better chances in this.

Held up for a run early in the straight when 7.7m 5th $8.60 (Sr1) Joogle Canberra 2170m (2:01.3) R55 race Mar 9 then beaten 21m 4th $9.00 (Sr2) Katamach NZ Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:55.2) R5155 race Mar 20. Minor place perhaps.

Good effort when 0.5m 2nd $1.60 (Fr3) Amelia Holmes Coolamon 1760m (1:56.8) R4555 race Mar 1 then beaten 14m 5th $2.10 (Fr5) Aymar NZ Newcastle 1609m (1:59.5) R4855 race Mar 14. Has placed this track and distance and drawn suitably; in the mix.

Finished 9.5m 3rd $5.00 (Fr4) Gold Starzzz Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:56.6) R5155 race Feb 28 then galloped out when distanced 7th $8.00 (Fr1) Ima Dad Canberra 2170m (2:01.2) R5464 race Mar 9. Take on trust.

Safely held when 7m 2nd $8.00 (Sr4) Tsunami Charlie Penrith 2125m (1:58.8) R5255 race Mar 12 then raced wide late when 1.7m 2nd $3.40 (Sr4) Lombo Heaven Penrith 2125m (1:58.2) R5355 race Mar 19. Close up last start; expected to run well again; draw not an issue given her racing style.
