Narrogin Race 5 - Book Your Cup Day Marquee Spot Now Ms Pace
THE STATE OF ART NZ (3) resumes after finishing seventh at his latest appearance at Pinjarra on December 24 2024. Talented and has plenty of upside. Has the benefit of a good draw and he can figure in the finish. FRANCO MECCA NZ (8) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 14 metres into ninth at Gloucester Park over 1730m. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. Beautifully placed and is sure to be right there at the finish. AMERICAN MONARCH (7) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 22 metres at Northam over 2190m. UP AND ALIVE (9) is close to a win after two successive seconds, the latest over 2242m at this track. Top-three aspirations.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr4) over 2242m after showing early pace at this track beaten 7 m by Follow The Music (2:49.10) in 4yo+ NR up to 60 on February 28 at $10. Showed ability the run before when he won by 2 m (Sr1) at Albany (2:13.50) beating Escapefromreality in 4yo+ NR up to 49 on February 20 at $5. Strong contender on best figures.

Didn't do much last time out, was well back in the run when 10th (Fr2) over 2265m after showing early speed at Albany beaten 25 m by Lord Titanium (2:49.50) in 4yo+ NR up to 69 on February 6 at $51. Before that was well back in the run when 7th (Fr6) over 2265m at Albany beaten 22 m by Keptain Courageous (2:49.60) in 4yo+ NR 50 to 60 on January 30 at $13. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Major Freeway at Albany over 2265m in a 4yo+ NR up to 69 on February 20 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Follow The Music at this track over 2242m in a 4yo+ NR up to 60 on February 28 at $6.50. Among the chances.

Won by a head (Fr2) at this track (2:49.10) beating Up And Alive in 4yo+ NR up to 60 on February 28 at $23. The race before was not as impressive when beaten by 9 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Funky Music at Albany over 2265m in a 4yo+ NR up to 55 on February 13 at $61. This looks a far sterner test.
