Parkes Race 6 - Grenfell Commodities Pace
MAJOR MALENA (9) is a four-year-old gelding by Art Major on debut for Wendy Turnbull. May just need a bit of luck at some point from this difficult draw but has been trialling well at Bathurst so could make a winning debut of things go his way. ALWAYS LATHER (1) came from much wider when resuming at Wagga. Will strip fitter and is much better served by the ace draw so look for big improvement. TAKE ME TOO (7) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance at this venue and a Goulburn placing prior. ROCKNROLLEM (8) has been freshened since finishing fifth first-up at Bathurst but has trialled. Can make an impact with even luck.

Comes here second-up after a week-and-a-half. Lacklustre first-up performance when 8th (Sr4) over 1660m at this track beaten 30 m by Lamna Nasus (2:03.50) on October 30 at $51. May need more racing.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Im The Major at Bathurst over 1730m on October 14 at $41. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Lamna Nasus at this track over 1660m on October 30 at $34. Solid prospects.

Four-year-old gelding by Art Major out of Malena having his first start. Finished fourth at Bathurst in a trial on November 2 over 1730m. Tricky draw but has trialled well enough for a winning debut with even luck.
