GOING: N

DINE IN THE PACEWAY RESTAURANT ON RACE NIGHTS PACE (SKY 2) 2230m

Track: GOOD      

JOHN VINCENT (4) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months and looks to be right up to the mark following a recent trial win. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. ROSCOS RESCUE (5) was in the money two runs ago, then was about the mark again last time over 2230m at this track, finishing 4.5 metres from the winner in third. Big chance based on those recent efforts. WHATA OPTIMIST (8) must be considered after he finished third over 2230m at this track five days ago. SHIRLEY NOT (2) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at Mildura over 1790m. Each way value here.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after a quick start, behind Magic Storm at this track over 1800m in a NR 47 to 54 on July 12 at $7.50. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Feisty Jane at this track over 2230m in a NR 47 to 54 GROUP on July 14 at $2.90. Great chance to break through.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr6) over 2230m at this track was 8th-16.2 at the bell, beaten 12 m by Roscos Rescue (2:46.10) in NR up to 46 on June 18 at $51. Two runs back 6th (Fr2) over 2230m after showing early pace at this track was 7th-11.3m on the pegs at the bell, beaten 11 m by Major Icon (2:48.00) in 4yo+ NR up to 59 on February 15 at $126. This looks a far sterner task.
