Menangle Race 2 - Bestinbeds.com.au Pace

MIKI PINS (6) is a progressive gelding who made it three straight wins at this circuit since joining Jason Grimson when he raced parked but proved too strong for some handy rivals over this distance last start. He could be bound for better things and looks nicely placed to add to the winning sequence. JORDY NZ (2) will enjoy a class drop after tackling the G3 Shirley Turnbull Memorial last start and had been racing well before that including a win at this venue three back. He draws to play a role. BLUTO NZ (8) is a talented pacer with a good record at this circuit and distance. Proven fresh and was readied with two trials so looking for a good return. PROMISING (1) has been racing consistently at Penrith and can be competitive from the inside draw. Something for the Multiples: MIKI PINS NZ (6)
