Bathurst Race 8 - Bathurst Rsl Club Pace
HERESHOPINGSHANNON (2) added to a series of top-four results when he led from this barrier and fought well to go under by just a head as runner-up at Cowra last start. Looks close to another win and should have no excuses from this advantageous draw. TULHURST MAUREEN (1) hasn't been far away since kicking off her campaign with a maiden win at this circuit and distance last month. Might find this a little easier than her last-start fourth and is aided by the ace draw. MINOR PREMIER (10) was knocked out of the race last start but did a good job to win at Young prior. HASHTAG HECTOR (6) bombed the score-up last time but was beaten less than 3m into fourth here prior.

Before that, 5th (Sr2) over 1730m at this track, at the bell was 2nd-2.19 beaten 6 m by Lucky Punt (2:06.20) in M on September 9 at $26. Should get every chance from this draw.

Good run when beaten by 5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Ocean King at this track over 2260m on August 28 at $3.90. Then a handy effort when a close second after showing early speed, behind Papa Joe at Cowra over 2160m on September 13 at $2.25. In fine form. Drawn to advantage so can break through.

Good win by 2.5 metres defeating Bettorbythesea on September 15 at Young over 1720m 3yo. Failed to finish behind Trouble In Me on September 20 at Cowra over 1700m 3yo. Knocked out of the race last start but won well prior so worth another chance.
