Penrith Race 5 - Monster Trucks @ Penrith Showground Feb 21 Pace

IDEAL MARQUESS (1) is building into his preparation nicely having finished closer to the winner in each of his four starts. Put the writing on the wall last week when he came from a wide barrier for a 3m fourth at Menangle. Peaking now and should get his chance from the ace draw. DOUBLE FEAR (4) has done his recent racing at Menangle and has had wide barriers at his last couple. This suits better and he has recorded a win and a placing in two tries at this distance. PLAYA BLANCA (10) has been out of the money in the last two outings at Menangle but came from this row to win at this venue earlier in the month. Her strike rate here stands at 50 per cent so she is better placed. FIRE FOX NZ (7) can measure up with his A-game.
