Penrith R7 HRNSW GUARANTEED 2YO PACE

Race comment

Hung in during the race when 0.2m 2nd $34 (Fr3) Soviet Stunner NZ Menangle 1609m (1:56.1) 2R3539 race Apr 2. Narrowly beaten on debut when second over similar distance and likely to have benefited from the run; respect.

Race comment

Finished 14.2m 4th $10.00 (Fr6) Endeavour Stride Menangle 1609m (1:56.0) R3550 race Apr 6. Ran a useful fourth on debut and should be fitter for the run; can't discount claims.

Race comment

Eased early when 19.2m 5th $71 (Fr5) Titian Raider Menangle 1609m (1:54.8) 2R3436 race Apr 7. Though unplaced at only start could do better.

Race comment

Finished 22m 3rd $3.70 (Fr2) Meldrum Newcastle 1609m (2:00.4) 2R3335 race Mar 28. Placed at only race start and could repeat.

Race comment

Finished 34m 5th $51 (Fr3) Lets Get Rockin Newcastle 1609m (1:59.9) 2R3435 race Mar 21 then tired over the latter stages when 76.5m 8th $101 (Fr4) Titian Raider Menangle 1609m (1:54.8) 2R3436 race Apr 7. Well beaten in both career runs.

Race comment

By Four Starzzz Shark C out of Holme Safely making debut. Below par at the latest trial but drawn well here; watch.

Race comment

Raced well when 5m 4th $41 (Fr1) Tasty Delight Bathurst 1730m the 2Y-GP1 Gold Crown Final (grp1) Mar 28 then beaten 12.7m 3rd $4.00 (Fr7) Titian Raider Menangle 1609m (1:54.8) 2R3436 race Apr 7. Two placings from last three starts keep him in the mix.

Race comment

Fought on very well when 3.5m 2nd $6.00 (Fr7) Anntonia Menangle 1609m (1:56.9) 2F3436 race Mar 10 then held on well when 9.7m 4th $6.00 (Fr1) Watts Up Sunshine Menangle 1609m (1:53.4) 2R3436 race Mar 17. Sound in all four career wins without winning; each way.

Race comment

Suffered gear malfunction when 9.2m 4th $3.80 (Fr9) Soviet Stunner NZ Menangle 1609m (1:56.1) 2R3539 race Apr 2 then very impressive winner $1.70 (Fr2) defeating Jaffa NZ 12.5m Penrith 2125m (1:59.3) R3345 race Apr 9. Winner of 2 from 3 career wins and had gear issues when fourth in the other; can win again despite drawing the second row.

Race comment

Out of position at the start when 15.2m 5th $15 (Fr1) Soviet Stunner NZ Menangle 1609m (1:56.1) 2R3539 race Apr 2. Needs to lift a notch on debut run to figure here.
