Bathurst Race 9 - Hynash Group Gold Crown Gold Consolation
SOHO MAJESTIC (2) is a progressive gelding who has performed well in both starts since a debut city win, clocking in second in the G3 Sapling Stakes before going under in last week's heat by just a nose. Should push forward from this draw and looks hard to catch. MOUNT BARKER BOY (12) hails from a leading yard and started a hot favourite when making his debut in the heats, leading and boxing on for a 2.7m third. Draws on the back row but is open to improvement. LEXY (5) led and was gunned down when a hot favourite in his heat. That made it back-to-back seconds after going under by a neck on debut from this barrier. Contender. BEROCCA BERNIE (11) draws on the second line but has yet to miss the top two so is hard to rule out.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m second behind Mister Americano at this track over 1730m 2yo No NR CG last start. Before that was beaten a neck second at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in 2yo MAIDEN on February 21. He can be right in the thick of things.

Two-year-old colt lining up for the second time. At debut good run when 3rd (Fr5) over 1730m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 2.75 m by A Buck Ten (2:03.80) in 2yo No NR CG on March 21 at $1.50. Has to contend with an awkward draw but is a likely improver.
