GOING: N

RELIANCE BANK PACE 1730m

Track: FAST   Clear (Max: 12)    

THREE RIVERS (2) hasn't been far away of late and put the writing on the wall last week when he led and fought on well to go under by a neck at Penrith. Can push forward again from this draw. Big chance. MITCHELLS RUN (10) recorded a third successive placing when tackling a Waratah Final at Menangle last start, finishing third and 1.2 metres from the winner. With even luck from the back row could find the winners' list. SEASIDER (9) was a beaten favourite when 4.4m away last start but had been consistent with a series of top-four finishes prior. Draws for a trail and is worth another chance. ARTEMIS MISSION (1) has had tough barriers in both starts since a spell. Much better served by the inside draw and is building in fitness.
