GOING: N

WEDNESDAY MARKETS @ PENRITH SHOWGROUND PACE 2125m

Track: FAST      

SARA TA SLOY (2) finds the lowest-graded race she has tackled so far this campaign and should be nearing peak fitness third-up. Draws to advantage so can show her best. ZEN MASTER (8) hasn't been far from the placegetters in both runs since winning here. Draws on the second row but owns a decent strike rate at this circuit and distance. The ace draw gives IMA QUEEN BEE (1) every chance to show her best while HOT CRUISE CONTROL (4) made it three placings from his last four starts at this venue when he drew on the back row and raced parked but stuck on for third last week. Go well.
