GOING: F

MENANGLE PARK COMMUNITY PACE 1609m

Track: FAST      

TIMMY RICTOR (2) saluted two runs back here as the hot favourite to make it two from two at this track, then his luck changed last time when he broke and finished 6 metres back in fourth over 2270m at Riverina Paceway when once again sent out a hot favourite. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. It doesn't get any easier but he is good enough to take this race out. SWEETHEART BART (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when third of 10 at this track over 2300m when trying to lead all of the way. Could prove hard to peg back. TOMAHAWK BART (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by a neck at this track over 1609m after coming from three-back on the fence into the straight. HAS THE COURAGE (1) finished fourth of 10 here last start after getting restrained from his wide draw. From the inside draw can return to form.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Franco Tyson at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 80 on May 10 at $1.75. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Franco Tyson at this track over 2300m in a NR up to 80 on May 17 at $2.80. Definite winning chance.
