Parkes Race 2 - Dwyer Contracting 3yo Colts & Geldings Pace
MISTER DEPENDABLE (1) made a solid impact on debut a week ago, finishing second and beaten 1.1 metres over 1720m at Dubbo. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. That debut effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. PLEASANT HEIGHTS (2) finished third last start over 1720m at Dubbo, beaten 5 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1730m at Bathurst. Has the benefit of a good draw. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. YA RACIN DASH (5) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1720m at Dubbo. Top-three contender. MY CONFIDANT (8) is the best of the rest after finishing third when resuming over 1720m at Dubbo last time out. Strips fitter now.

Three-year-old colt facing the starter for the second time. At debut solid effort when 2nd (Sr2) over 1720m at Dubbo, at the bell was 3rd-2.5 beaten 1.1 m by Stay Lucky (2:08.30) in 3yo on June 12 at $41. Likely improver from a low draw.

Two back was third after being driven well back, behind Guarded Prognosis at Bathurst over 1730m in a 3yo CG on May 29 at $7. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Bodeletos at Dubbo over 1720m on June 12 at $2.25. Sure to feature.
