Bathurst Race 4 - Bathurst Rsl Pace
BETTER SHUSH (10) has been racing well in higher-graded races at this circuit, last week finishing second and just a head from the winner. With even luck he is good enough to put himself into the winners' stall. SHARPER MEMORY (6) is in the mix after she was held up in finishing fourth at her most recent appearance here, beaten only 3.7m. HAPPY REG (5) should find this easier than recent appearances and has claims off a win here three back. STUDLEIGH MELISE (4) was held up last time and has claims off a close second here two back.

Didn't do much at the last run, broke in score up and was out of position at the start 6th (Sr1) over 2120m at Dubbo, beaten 20 m by Kadar (2:35.20) in NR up to 60 on March 23 at $151. Before that 8th (Fr2) over 2260m after showing early pace at this track beaten 45 m by Bettor Keppel (2:43.60) in NR up to 80 on March 12 at $12. Others read better. This looks a far sterner task.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Still Rollin at this track over 1730m in a NR up to 75 on March 26 at $12. Then a handy effort when a close second after being driven well back, behind Mighty Flying Art at this track over 1730m in a NR up to 68 on April 2 at $4.80. Strong claims.
