Newcastle Race 6 - Garrards Horse And Hound Pace
RESERVE BANK NZ (6) has been racing in great heart and was again in fine form last start when she came from a similar draw and finished second at this circuit and distance, her third placing from the last four outings. Chance to break through. FEARFUL (8) recorded back-to-back placings before racing three wide without cover last start. Will need luck from a wide draw but a win could be imminent. KEAYANG HARLOW (4) returns to the front ow and that could see a better result. THRIPENNY (2) eases back in grade on the last attempt and was racing consistently prior. Draws well so is worth another chance.

Didn't do much last time out, 6th (Fr3) over 1609m after showing early speed at this track was 10th-20.62 at the bell, beaten 15 m by Cooindalai (1:57.00) on September 14 at $81. Before that was well back in the run when 10th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track was 8th-16.21 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Hasler (1:57.20) on August 31 at $126. Not enthused.

Last start was well beaten into seventh behind Krusty Krunch at this track over 1609m in a M on September 18 at $31. Performed better the start before with a game effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track was 7th-11.58 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Media Mogul (1:56.70) on September 11 at $2.90. Draws for a good showing.
