Cowra Race 3 - Cowra Paceway Pace
ROCKET ME (5) turned in a good effort at his latest run to get home by a narrow margin over 1700m at this track on September 13. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he good enough to play a major role. DRIVE TO THE BEACH (10) finished third last start, beaten 6 metres, in a nice return to form at this track over 1700m. Not drawn to best so may need a 10/10 drive. His recent form is good enough to put him right in the finish. JOHNNYS BLUE (8) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1720m at Young five days ago. LADY DELORIS (3) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1700m at this track a week ago.

Didn't do much at the last run, 7th (Fr3) over 1700m after racing wide at this track, beaten 50 m by Celebrity Cruise (2:05.60) on September 13 at $101. Before that 9th (Fr4) over 1720m after showing early speed and racing wide at Young beaten 23 m by Ideal Tao (2:09.70) on August 18 at $151. Must improve sharply.

Two back was well beaten into eighth after being driven well back, behind Jewel Heaven at Bathurst over 1730m on September 2 at $151. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third despite hanging in on scoring up, behind Smooth Euro at this track over 1700m on September 13 at $34. Rates highly and is well-placed to take this out.
