Bathurst R4 BOURKES HORSE RUGS PACE

Race comment

Back from a spell. Out of position at the start and hung out when 70.5m 10th $23 (Sr4) Kash Us Back Parkes 2040m (1:59.6) R4152 race Sep 15 then raced wide early and tired over the latter stages when 98.5m 9th $101 (Fr4) Roger That Eugowra 2100m (2:00.5) R4360 race Sep 29. Back from a spell and he could need this run (0 from 3 fresh).

Eased early when 0.7m 2nd $3.80 (Fr5) Atomic Bombshell Bathurst 2260m (2:01.6) R4049 race Mar 30 then sound effort when 4.2m 3rd $7.00 (Fr1) Arty Pharty NZ Bathurst 2260m (2:02.2) R4853 race Apr 8. Could be building to another win following consecutive minor placings.

Finished 36m 7th $19 (Sr4) Mickey Ramone Tamworth 1609m (1:58.8) R4751 race Mar 19 then raced wide early and covered extra ground when 34.5m 9th $151 (Fr3) Scaramucci Bathurst 1730m (1:59.5) R4956 race Apr 5. Needs to lift.

Eased early when 16.5m 9th $41 (Fr5) Carinya Gold Bathurst 1730m (1:57.4) R4953 race Apr 1 then eased early when 22.5m 4th $101 (Fr4) Matamua Bathurst 1730m (2:00.4) R4755 race Apr 11. Improved effort at this run this this prep and is proven fourth up; consider.

Race comment

Solid effort when 9.7m 7th $26 (Fr2) Dukkah Bathurst 2260m (2:01.1) R4852 race Dec 13 then tired over the latter stages when 52m 9th $5.50 (Fr2) Matamua Bathurst 1730m (2:00.4) R4755 race Apr 11. Had issues at her first run from a break last start and is proven at this track and distance; could improve sharply.

Race comment

Tired over the latter stages when 63m 8th $7.50 (Fr7) Atomic Bombshell Bathurst 2260m (2:01.6) R4049 race Mar 30 then beaten 8m 6th $11 (Fr2) Arty Pharty NZ Bathurst 2260m (2:02.2) R4853 race Apr 8. Chance on best form.

Race comment

Safely held when 1.7m 5th $2.30 (Fr5) Corporal Jujon Young 2100m (2:03.3) R4048 race Mar 17 then finished 29.5m 6th $9.00 (Fr3) Matamua Bathurst 1730m (2:00.4) R4755 race Apr 11. Four time winner in this distance range and drawn well here; likely improver in this grade.

Race comment

Hung in during the race when 7m 6th $4.60 (Fr5) Flash In Sam Parkes 1660m (2:00.4) R5053 race Jan 8 then eased early, covered extra ground and tired over the latter stages when distanced 10th $19 (Fr6) Rodanthe Nights Bathurst 2260m (1:59.9) R4155 race Mar 16. Had genuine excuses first up and well graded here; not out of it.

Race comment

Resuming from a spell. Raced wide late, hung in during the race and broke during running when 68.5m 9th $16 (Sr5) Caribbean Rocket Dubbo 1720m (2:02.4) 3R4550 race Aug 25 then beaten 47.5m 7th $3.30 (Sr1) Shes The Other One Dubbo 1720m (1:58.1) R3847 race Sep 1. Resumes and yet to win in 5 starts but was placed on debut two preps back.
