Canberra Race 3 - Watty's Rural & Domestic Fencing Pace
ACHY BREAKY ARK (1) has not raced for three months. Looks forward enough for this return after a minor placing in a recent trial. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Sure to be right there at the finish. BORROWED TIME (7) has drawn wide in recent runs. Failed to feature last time out when ninth over 1609m at Menangle. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go his way at some stage. Tackles a similar assignment and he can turn in a much better performance. NOSAER (10) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1730m at Bathurst five days ago. IDEAL IN DREAMS (9) should find this easier than recent attempts so look for improvement.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr10) over 1609m at Menangle beaten 12 m by Action Major (1:52.40) in NR up to 75 on May 5 at $81. The run previous was well back in the run when 6th (Fr10) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 6th-11.72 beaten 5.5 m by Cash And Bling (1:53.90) in NR up to 75 on April 28 at $71. Hasn't drawn the best again but he is a strong winning chance.
