Penrith Race 1 - Aussie Night Markets Sunday March 8 Pace
ADMIRABLE NZ (5) was far from disgraced when midfield from a similar barrier in a higher-graded race at Menangle on Saturday. Came from the back row for second at this venue prior. Finds a suitable race so could return to winning form. ROCKNROLL GIG (6) has been racing well and looks close to a win following back-to-back placings. Led from a similar draw and boxed on for second at his latest appearance at Newcastle. Could go one better. DONTLETFEARSTOPYA NZ (10) is good enough to make an impact if things go his way from the second line. PORT AU PRINCE NZ (4) hasn't been far away of late and draws lower than last start.

Didn't do much last start, broke in score up and was out of position at the start 9th (Sr1) over 1720m at this track beaten 16 m by Slyx (2:03.60) in NR up to 58 on February 19 at $26.30.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Tooram Cee Cee at this track over 1720m in a NR up to 63 on February 19 at $8. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Tara Victory at Newcastle over 1609m in a NR up to 60 on February 27 at $16. Going along well. Close to a win and should be right there at the business end.

Resuming after a spell of 15 months. Finished off last preparation when beaten by 8 m finishing fifth after a quick start, behind Double Fear at Newcastle over 1609m in a 3yo LR No NR CG on November 29 2024 at $81. Tricky draw but trialling well so watch the market.
