Nowra Race 7 - Batteries U Need

DARLEY BOY (1) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Grade 5 at The Gardens. Safe beginner and drawn well on the inside. Look for sharp improvement here. FUTURE REFERENCE (2) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (21.29) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Good beginner and aided by a handy draw. Well placed here and can atone this time. EL CONDOR PASA (7) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 365m behind Fancy Bella (21.57) in a Grade 5. Has good speed and will be prominent from out wide. Bold showing expected. VINTAGE RACER (5) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 365m at this track. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
