RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: What a terrific edition of the Pacing Cup! MIKI TO SUCCESS (8) is a high quality 5yo who’s graduated from being top quality against his age division to taking on the Grand Circuit quality FFA’s. His run in the A G Hunter Cup to run 4th was terrific and he backed it up with a tough win last week. He won well at his only start here which adds to the confidence. ATA RANGI (5) has been ultra consistent this time in and is versatile in his racing pattern which helps considering the front row speed. SANCHEZ (1) ran well at Birchip and has raced in good company most of his career; the draw helps for a tactical advantage. MY ULTIMATE JIMMY (3) can fly under the radar at this level, but he gives every indication he’s above average and can run a good race.
