Newcastle Race 1 - Sky Racing Active Pace
DUTY OF CARE (3) drew wide and couldn't get into the action at his latest appearance at Menangle but will enjoy a class drop having recorded a string of top-two finishes prior including a win here two back. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Finds a nice race and can make amends. DANCE WITH CARMER (9) was held up late in the city last start but had recorded two wins and a second from his previous three here. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line and if the gaps come he could prove tough to beat. It all went wrong for WAMBOYNEINAMERICA (5) at Menangle last start. Won two of his previous three in Brisbane and owns a good strike rate here so deserves another chance. ZEN MASTER (1) is proven here and could feature from the inside draw.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr2) over 2300m at Menangle beaten 22 m by Our Sweet Delight (2:43.40) in NR up to 75 on September 13 at $81. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 13 m (Fr5) at this track (1:55.80) beating Bushy Beach in NR up to 59 on September 5 at $2.80 at the bell was leading 3.2. Can play a role in the finish.

Last start was well beaten into tenth behind Tuapeka Lou at Menangle over 2300m in a 4-020yo+ 0W/20K Stakes on August 30 at $11. Performed better the start before where he won by 2 m after showing early speed, (Fr6) at this track (2:27.60) beating Dance With Carmer in NR up to 58 on August 22 at $4.60. Well placed and should get his chance from this draw.

Last start was well beaten into eighth behind Tuapeka Lou at Menangle over 2300m in a NR up to 75 on September 13 at $6. Raced better the start before that where he won by 8 m when quickly away, (Fr3) at Albion Park (2:32.20) beating Jensville in NR 56 to 64 on August 26 at $2.30. Can improve sharply.

Finding it hard to put a couple of good runs together. Last start was 3rd (Sr2) over 2030m at this track beaten 8 m by Saint Crusader (2:26.90) in NR up to 70 on September 12 at $41. Before that beaten 17 metres, sixth at this track over 1609m NR up to 59 on September 5. Might find this beyond him.

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Was well back in the run when 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th-20.05 beaten 5.5 m by Karaoke King (1:53.10) in NR 60 to 65 on September 5 at $26. The run before was not as impressive when beaten by 6 m finishing eighth behind Some Chevron at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 57 on August 29 at $13. This looks a tough task.
