Menangle Race 7 - Tab We're On Pace

BELLA DANZA (5) made a winning start for the new yard when she took advantage of the inside draw to lead and win by more than 10m here last week. Draws wider but is two from two when second-up so should be improved and looks capable of going through her grades. GIMME A REASON (2) added to some good form this campaign when he came from a much wider barrier to score narrowly at this venue and distance last week. The good draw should give him his chance to back that up. MAJOR MAL (8) hasn't performed to market expectations of late but drops in grade on the last attempt and is good enough with his A-game. MAJOR STATEMENT (4) must be included on the back of some solid recent form.
