Bathurst Race 1 - Cattlewash At Yirribee Stud Pace
OCEAN KING (3) had been building to a win and it arrived last start when he scored by 5.5 metres over 1730m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. It doesn't get any easier but he is good enough to take this out. PRINCESS BALLERINA (7) finished fifth last start over 2260m at this circuit, beaten 10 metres, after a good win here the run prior. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Meets a comparable field and she can make amends. SURPRISE PACKET (9) is the next elect off a last-start win by 23 metres at Riverina Paceway over 1740m when fresh from a spell. Strips even fitter now. BUTTER CUP (10) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fifth at this venue over 1730m. Top-three aspirations.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Sr1) over 1730m at this track, beaten 5 m by Foresight (2:06.90) on August 12 at $4.80. Before that, 5th (Sr1) over 1730m at this track, at the bell was 7th-12.27 beaten 6 m by Shaun Shannon (2:05.50) on August 5 at $13. Draws the inside and expected to do much better.

Nine-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 2nd (Sr2) over 1730m at this track beaten a nose by Foresight (2:06.90) on August 12 at $15. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into ninth behind Foresight at Parkes over 1660m on July 31 at $19. Not keen.

The run before was not as impressive when beaten by 8 m finishing sixth behind Shaun Shannon at this track over 1730m on August 5 at $23. Facing a tougher assignment this time around.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Sr2) over 2260m at this track was 4th-5.95 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Major Bye (2:47.10) on August 5 at $3.40. Showed ability the outing before when she won by 2.5 m when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (2:04.60) beating Shazadele in on July 29 at $6 at the bell was leading 1.8. Rates highly and looks hard to beat on best form.
