GOING: N

GARRARDS HORSE & HOUND UP TO 2 WINS AS 3YO+ PATHWAY PACE 1660m

Track: GOOD      

SHANKYS SHOT (7) is a newcomer to the Shannon Price yard from NZ. Last appeared when fifth at Addington in February but won two in a row prior. Draws wide but should be ready to go off a trial win here. BARSBY (5) had been racing consistently before a well-deserved last-start win by 7 metres at this circuit and distance. Draws wider but could go on with it. FITZROY (6) is very consistent having yet to miss a place. Winner at this circuit and distance two back. Contender. JAMES ALFRED (3) deserved the last-start win following consistent form. Drawn favourably so can be in the finish again.

First up. At the last run he was well back in the run when 4th (Fr6) over 1730m at Bathurst was 7th-12.8m 2WWC at the bell, beaten 12 m by True Logic (2:04.60) in NR up to 47 on October 8 at $6. Might need this.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following April 7 run. Last start posted a big 6 m win when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at Redcliffe (2:10.10) beating Elka Angel in 3yo No NR on April 14 at $10. This race will be harder than that win. This looks tougher.
