RACING & SPORTS.COM PACE 1660m

Track: GOOD      

LA BOMBA (9) made it two wins from two runs since heading to Queensland, last start she got the cash by a head over 1660m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment and can chalk-up the hat-trick for the campaign. YANKEE C J (10) failed to flatter last time out when fifth, beaten 17 metres, over 1660m at this track. Has had to do work in the run in previous starts and may need to make a move forward once again from the draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can turn in a much better performance. ULTIMATE ARK (7) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing second at this track over 2138m. MAGICOL IDEAL (3) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1660m at this track on September 12. Has the gate speed to be forward early once again.

Didn't do much at the last run, 5th (Fr1) over 2138m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 10 m by Fight To The End (2:36.20) in NR 41 to 46 on September 4 at $41. Before that was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr4) over 1660m at this track beaten 15 m by Little Surfer Girl (1:58.60) in NR 40 to 45 on August 28 at $51. Others make more appeal.
