Bathurst Race 4 - Little Wych Premium Spelling Pace
SMOOTH BUZZ (11) drew wide and worked before fading out last time so that result can be forgiven. Had looked close to a win when recording a series of top-four finishes at Menangle prior. The longer distance should suit as he owns a good record at it here. Primary contender with even luck from the back row. ALWAYSBMYPONY (9) went back last start then made up a stack of ground to score by a head at this circuit and distance. Shouldn't spend a penny from this draw and the sprint lane may come in handy. Up in grade but another win is not out of the question. SHAZADELE (5) is another up in class but she is one of the contenders after winning her past two starts at this venue. Difficult to ignore that sort of form. GUILTY PARTY (6) is another that is tough to leave out on the back of two successive wins, overcoming difficult draws each time.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr7) over 2260m at this track was 9th-12.95 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Alwaysbmypony (2:45.80) on October 14 at $26.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 2.5 m third behind Alwaysbmypony at this track over 2260m last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres fifth again at this track over 1730m same class on October 9. Capable of going well from a low draw.

Six-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at this track both over 1730m. Last start tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.1 m (Fr5) at this track (2:04.20) beating Bettor Keppel in on October 14 at $3.40 at the bell was 2nd-1.39. Going well and could land the hat trick.

Seven-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Canberra and Riverina Paceway. Last start posted a big 8 m win as favourite (Sr4) at Canberra (2:08.10) beating Rumour Stride in on October 6 at $3.40 at the bell was 3rd-5. Must respect winning form.

Six-year-old gelding who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 9th (Fr8) over 1730m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track beaten 22 m by Its Confidential (2:01.70) on October 14 at $9. Well placed and has winning claims with even luck.
