Ascot Park Race 5 - Lather Up 'Leaving Juvenile Speed' Mobile Pace

ALWAYS DREAMING (7) returned from a break in very good order last time out when a authoritative winner over 1609m at Central Southland Raceway on November 17 getting home by 6 metres. Has to contend with a very wide draw. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. BETTER BE QUICK (1) added to her recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 2000m at Rangiora, beaten 4.5 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Leading hope in this comparable race. DRUMMERSHAVTIME (6) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Central Southland Raceway. ABSOLUTE BABE (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by a nose at Ashburton Raceway over 1700m.

Solid run when a close second behind Arafura at Oamaru over 2000m in a 2yo F on October 13 at $2. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Sacetas at Rangiora over 2000m in a 2yo on November 8 at $9.20. Likely to measure up.

Last start 5th (Fr7) over 1700m at Ashburton Raceway, beaten 3.5 m by Absolute Babe (2:02.00) in 2yo+ FM on November 14 at $20. Two runs back 5th (Fr2) over 1609m at Central Southland Raceway, beaten 25 m by Tact Teva (1:58.20) in 2yo+ on August 29 at $27.70. This looks a far sterner test.

Last start 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at Central Southland Raceway beaten 13 m by Always Dreaming (1:57.60) on November 17 at $18.10. Two runs back 5th (Fr2) over 1700m at this track beaten 14 m by Bettor Fortune (2:05.20) on October 27 at $10. This looks far too tough.

Two-year-old colt who is showing promise. Solid first up, posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr6) at Central Southland Raceway (1:57.60) beating Drummershavtime in on November 17 at $1.20. Winner at his only second-up run and expected to be in the finish again.
