Bathurst Race 5 - Horse Queened Pace
SHAZADELE (1) has been racing well of late and added to a string of top-four finishes at this venue when beaten less than 5m at her latest appearance. The ace draw gives her every chance to return to the winners' list. WHYIMAN (2) showed improvement when second-up last time at Penrith, racing wide early then sitting outside the leader before boxing on for a midfield finish. No excuses from this advantageous draw and has won third-up before so can progress further. NOSAER (10) gets a second row draw for her first outing since September but she was readied with a trial win and she is a capable mare. TAPAGANOOSH (5) continued his consistent form when fourth in the rich Regional Championships Fast Pass last start at Parkes. Go well again.

Last start 4th (Fr2) over 2260m at this track beaten 5 m by Bad Habits (2:46.10) in NR up to 65 on January 9 at $5.50. Before that, a solid effort when 2nd (Sr2) over 1730m at this track, beaten 6 m by Joans Rising Star (2:03.90) in NR up to 58 M on December 26 at $10. The ace draw may see her hard to beat.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr4) over 1720m after being wide early at Penrith was 2nd-0.97 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Playa Blanca (2:04.50) in NR up to 58 on January 8 at $5.50. The run before 9th (Fr2) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 25 m by Tisbury Rocks (1:52.80) in NR up to 60 on December 8 at $34. Worth another chance. Coming good it seems so worth following up.

Freshened-up since the last run 56 days ago. Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 5 m sixth behind Cassius Deck at this track over 1730m NR up to 90 last start. Before that was beaten 4.5 metres sixth again at this track in NR up to 80 on November 12. Heading the right way and could play a role.
