Menangle Race 1 - Ultra Air Pace
MIKI PINS (2) has worked his way back into peak form, putting the writing on the wall with back-to-back placings before digging deep to score at this circuit and distance last week. Enjoys a draw closer to the pegs tonight and that gives him the chance to deliver again. I BREAK THE LINE (1) took on a strong bunch last week but is better placed having won in this company prior. He gets the ace draw so is right in contention. DASHING (3) was back from a let-up when midfield from a wide barrier last time. Should be improved by that and is better drawn. FRANCO TYSON (9) cops a wide draw tonight but his form is strong so he deserves respect as does UBETCHA TIGERPIE (6) who draws a little better than last week and was a Melton winner two back.

Last start was well beaten into seventh after a quick start, behind Kingmaker at this track over 1609m in a No NR on May 24 at $21. Raced better the start before that where he posted a big 4 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr5) at this track (1:51.70) beating Skylord in NR up to 95 on May 10 at $2.15. Leading contender from this draw.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track was 6th-12.02 at the bell, beaten 11 m by No Heart Throb (1:51.10) in NR up to 95 on May 24 at $7. The run prior broke in score up and was out of position at the start 5th (Sr3) over 2270m after being wide early at Riverina Paceway beaten 17 m by Captain Hammerhead (2:40.10) in 4-5yo LR No NR GH on April 19 at $10. Better draw so can be right there at the business end.
