GOING: F

JWB CONCRETE PENRITH PACE 1609m

Track: FAST      

MYTH YOU ALREADY (9) has been in outstanding form of late and kept it up last time out with a strong win from the outside barrier, giving him three wins and a placing from his last four outings at this circuit and distance. Hard to knock form like that. CLEAR LEFT (1) is a newcomer to the Kevin Pizzuto yard from Victoria. Hasn't raced since February but was readied with a trial placing here and gets the ace draw. TITIAN RAIDER (8) raced parked and faded last start but that was in stronger company. Placed in his previous two outings at this circuit and distance so is worth another chance. SPIRIT OF ARION (2) comes back in grade on the latest attempt and draws well. Worth a second look.
