Menangle Race 6 - D M Plumbing Pace
BEACH BALL NZ (3) wasn't quite at his best last time in but raced well against stronger company in the previous campaign, placing in the Inter Dominion consolation. This is the lowest graded race he has encountered for some time and he should be ready to go off two trials. Has a decent fresh record and should get his chance from a good draw. UNFAZED NZ (8) has been performing well in good company of late, finishing fifth in a Listed race last week and fourth to Swayzee the week prior. Draws wide but won the last time he raced below FFA level so this suits. CRAFTMANS CHARLIE (7) raced wide without cover from a tough draw in the Tamworth Cup last start so wasn't disgraced when midfield. Kicked off the campaign with a win at this circuit and distance so can measure up with his A-game. PETES SAID SO NZ (5) hinted at a return to form with a placing at Listed level last week. A repeat of that performance would stack up well.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Swayzee at this track over 2300m in a No NR on January 17 at $126. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Rakero Rocket at this track over 1609m in a LR No NR on January 24 at $81. Can make his presence felt.

Failed to impress last start; surrendered the lead and finished 6th (Fr6) over 2300m after showing early speed at this track, beaten 24 m by Swayzee (2:43.70) in No NR on January 17 at $81. Showed ability the outing before when he raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 1.4 m when quickly away, (Fr8) at Bathurst (2:42.20) beating Shez Sweet Louise in No NR on January 9 at $51 at the bell was 3rd-5. Capable of playing a role.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 11 m by Rakero Rocket (1:49.50) in LR No NR on January 24 at $81. Before that, 4th (Fr4) over 2300m at this track, beaten 22 m by Swayzee (2:43.70) in No NR on January 17 at $81. Rates highly. Better placed and has strong claims.

Last start won to make any headway until the straight; raced back and made ground from the turn; won by 1.3 m when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at this track (2:41.90) beating Alta William in NR up to 95 on December 20 at $7.50 at the bell was 9th-18.89. Draws wide but can go well again.
