MAJOR OAK THEATRE RESTAURANT MAY 16 BOOK NOW 2YO PACE 1720m

Track: GOOD      

PASSION AND PAIN (7) worked forward from a wide barrier to lead before finishing second last time out. Had won two of his previous four outings, both of them at Newcastle. Should enjoy a nice trail from the inside of the second line and if he gets the gaps he could be hard to stop. MAIN BEACH (1) is a son of Downbytheseaside on debut for the Anton Golino yard. Has shown some ability at the trials, placing in his latest hitout at Menangle and is well served by the ace draw. BE HAPPY LARRY (4) is a likely improver after debuting with a solid second behind a promising rival last week at this circuit and distance. SOCIAL VELOCITY (5) lines up for the first time. By Tiger Tara and hails from the Michael Teuma stable. Placed in a recent trial here so keep safe.
