Menangle Race 2 - Bestinbeds.com.au Pace
FRANCO TYSON (3) has been racing well in higher-graded races, finishing midfield when held up last week but recording back-to-back placings here last month. Won at this circuit the last two times he raced in this lesser class so is well placed and can take full advantage of the low draw. FASHION ICON (10) came from this same barrier for an upset win here last start. That was his second success in four starts this time in so will be at peak fitness. MONTEFIORE (6) was held up late last week but had put together a string of wins or placings here prior. Contender. TOMAHAWK BART (9) draws deeper this week but his form reads well, placing last start and scoring a win over this shorter distance here three back. GUILTY PARTY (2) draws much better than last week and had been producing some decent efforts prior so include.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fifth after a quick start, behind Fashion Icon at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 80 on June 7 at $11. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after a quick start, behind Hesitate at this track over 2300m in a NR up to 80 on June 14 at $9. Right in the calculations.
