CORDINA CHICKEN FARMS PACE 1609m

Track: FAST      

DUTY OF CARE (6) had to dig deep to salute last time out over 2125m at Penrith, getting home by just 1.5 metres. Meets a similar lineup, so he can certainly win again. STAGECOACH (8) continued a solid run of recent form when he scored at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 1.5 metres. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Leading hope based on recent form. DOLCE DRAMA (10) finished third when resuming last start despite galloping, beaten 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Live chance again in a similar assignment. BANDIT EYES (2) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. Each-way.

Resumes today. Her previous first-up run was successful when she posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Sr2) at Maryborough (2:01.40) beating Steel Ruler in on May 3 2024 at $1.35. Has been in work for a little while but after a lengthy break may need the run.
