Newcastle R5 SLICK CHICKS PACE

Race comment

Handy effort when 10.5m 7th $126 (Fr1) Always Bopping Bathurst 1730m (1:57.8) R4556 race Apr 29 then beaten 21.5m 8th $151 (Fr3) The Dancer Bathurst 1730m (1:59.5) R3755 race May 10. Below par in recent starts but capable on his day and could improve from a suitable draw here.

Beaten 16.5m 4th $10.00 (Sr1) Scallywag Scout Newcastle 2030m (2:00.7) R3647 race Mar 21 then sound effort when 6.2m 6th $3.60 (Fr3) Eagle Uno Newcastle 2030m (2:00.1) R3745 race Apr 6. Has a modest win record but has won here and should not be taken lightly.

Eased early when 14m 5th $101 (Fr5) Azur Express Tamworth 1980m (2:03.1) R4155 race May 17 then covered extra ground when 1m 2nd $34 (Sr2) Night Lights NZ Tamworth 1980m (2:01.3) R3646 race May 28. Poor win record and place preferred.

Race comment

Checked and broke when distanced 10th $8.00 (Sr1) Im So Better Tamworth 1980m (2:01.6) R4250 race May 17 then safely held when 9.5m 3rd $9.50 (Sr4) Apollo Bam Bee Tamworth 1980m (2:02.3) R3447 race May 28. Fitter for recent runs and this distance should suit; close to another win.

Finished 44m 6th $23 (Fr4) Chillnstylz Newcastle 2030m (2:03.6) R3954 race May 18 then finished 14.2m 6th $31 (Fr1) My Carmen Tamworth 1980m (2:01.5) R4860 race May 28. Below par past couple but this is easier and definite contender on solid win at this track and distance three back.
