THE COMMON GOOD PACE 1660m

Track: GOOD      

CALL TO ORDER (3) drew wide last start so was far from disgraced when beaten 6 metres. Had finished top-four in his previous three outings, all from wider or second row barriers. Has winning claims from this more favourable draw. LANAI (6) has had a month off since breaking gear last time but was strong two back when he came from a similar draw for second at this circuit. Major player. MY ULTIMATE BUDDHA (4) kicked off the campaign with back-to-back placings before drawing on the back line last time. Race fit so rates as a contender. MY ULTIMATE VICTOR (1) raced parked last time but recorded a series of seconds prior, one of them from this draw.

Good run when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Bonnies Cam at Marburg over 2200m in a NR 40 to 70 on April 13 at $12. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Daggy Lamb at Marburg over 2200m in a NR 40 to 70 on April 20 at $8.50. Consider.

10-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. 2nd (Fr3) over 2138m after showing early speed at this track, beaten 7 m by Birkirkara (2:34.30) in NR up to 75 on May 2 at $26. The race before was not as impressive when beaten by 9 m finishing fourth behind Cheer Leader at this track over 1660m in a NR up to 75 on April 26 at $34. Place hope.
