Penrith Race 1 - Tab Venue Mode Pace
DOWN WARD DOG (2) brings strong form from Menangle where he won three back and placed in both outings since, the latest at Listed level in the Breeders Challenge Eastern Region 3CG Final. All of those were from wider draws than this and he has won here before so looks well placed. PALATINO NZ (1) should be at peak fitness now and put the writing on the wall with an improved effort here last time, coming from this barrier and finishing just a nose from the winner. BOYZHAVTIME NZ (8) placed last week and while he goes back to the second line he had this draw when fourth here prior. MIZZZ ADELE (3) was fourth from the back line last week and had come from similar draws to this when runner-up in the previous two outings here. Could be close to win.

Good performance when beaten by 5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Fasting at Menangle over 1609m in a NR 42 to 51 on November 24 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Soho Gunslinger at Menangle over 1609m in a 3yo LR No NR CG on December 6 at $11. Going along well. Well placed and hard to stop from this draw.

Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Obadiah Dragon at this track over 2125m in a NR up to 53 on December 11 at $10. Can play a role in the finish again.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 5th (Fr5) over 1720m at this track was 8th-17.25 at the bell, beaten 11 m by Nothingbutwaves (2:02.60) in NR 50 to 60 on December 11 at $10. Showed ability the race before when he ran on from midfield and won by a head (Fr3) at this track (2:04.30) beating Kates Virtue in NR up to 53 on November 27 at $12 at the bell was 2nd-2.49. Better than the last run and is a chance.
