Menangle Race 6 - Tab Ladyship Pace
JILLIBY ILLUMINATE NZ (10) has her hoof on the till after finishing runner-up in her three starts at this circuit and distance since joining Peter Rixon. Draws wider but has chased the in-form Isla Rochelle at her last couple and avoids that rival tonight so can break through. CHANGE TACT NZ (7) returns off a couple of Queensland hitouts where she performed well from back row draws. Winner at this venue and distance before heading north. Contender. ALFNALMA (11) faded out last week but she is better that that. Beat the boys at Bathurst prior and is worth another chance despite the wide draw. ULTIMATE DIVA (4) was brave in adding to a string of placings when just behind Jilliby Illuminate after racing three wide without cover here last week. Go well again.

Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at Newcastle, beaten 5.5 m by Startin To Gogh (1:55.70) on June 26 at $10. Two runs back won by 1.3 m as favourite hunging in on scoring up, when quickly away, (Fr5) at Penrith (2:07.10) beating Chevron Flies in on June 18 at $3.40 at the bell was leading 2.71. This looks a sterner test.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3.5 m third behind Isla Rochelle at this track over 1609m M last start. Before that was beaten a head second at Newcastle in on June 12. Can be thereabouts again.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following June 5 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a head (Fr4) at this track (1:52.60) beating You Are My Wish in on June 16 at $26 at the bell was 7th-14.57. This race will be harder than that win. Not as keen on her chances in this line-up.

Good performance when beaten by 3 m finishing fourth behind Tenaciously at Albion Park over 1660m in a 4yo+ M on June 13 at $9.50. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Cool And Classy at Redcliffe over 1780m in a M on June 20 at $31. Rates highly. Can be right in the thick of things.

Failed to impress last start; surrendered the lead and finished 6th (Fr7) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 13 m by Isla Rochelle (1:53.00) in M on June 27 at $5.50. Showed ability the race before when she ran on from midfield and won by 1.5 m as favourite (Fr7) at Bathurst (2:02.80) beating Borrowed Time in on June 10 at $1.90 at the bell was leading 2.25. Capable of playing a major role.
