Menangle Race 3 - Agnes Banks Equine Clinic 3Yo Pace
FAKE FRIENDS (8) kicked off her campaign by finishing runner-up in two of her first three starts at Newcastle before tackling some handy fillies at Listed level last start. Has joined Jason Grimson since and while drawn wide she looks well placed dropping in grade. SAN SEBASTIAN (7) resumes from a spell of six months after closing off last campaign in good form, coming from a similar barrier to this to score at his last appearance at Newcastle. Owns a decent record at this distance and is likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. GOT MY EYE ON YOU (3) was first up for six months when second at Wagga last time. Fitter for that and showed promise in winning her first two starts as a juvenile, one of them at this circuit and distance. EYE CAN EAR AMOUR (5) locked wheels when resuming but should strip fitter and had some solid form last time in so can improve.

Solid prospect with that run under the belt.

Last start was well back in the run when 9th (Fr9) over 1609m after racing wide at this track beaten 30 m by Showmethetanlines (1:51.70) in 3yo No NR on March 7 at $51. Before that, 5th (Sr2) over 1740m at Riverina Paceway, beaten 5 m by Im On No Sleep (2:02.50) in 3yo NR up to 58 on February 27 at $2.70. Capable of more than he has shown recently. This looks a suitable assignment.

Last start was well beaten into ninth after a quick start, behind Sparkling Sea at this track over 1609m in a 3yo LR No NR F on March 14 at $41. Raced better the start before that with a good run when 2nd (Sr2) over 2030m at Newcastle beaten 6 m by Bulletproof Kid (2:28.50) in NR up to 55 on February 27 at $2.40. Best form is good enough to win this.
