Penrith Race 10 - Penrith Highland Festival @ Penrith Showground Oct 3 Pace
BROOKESSMARTDANCER (2) kicked off his campaign with back-to-back placings at this venue, one from the back row, before sticking on okay when midfield last week. Draws well again and should be close to his peak now. PETES BIG JIM (4) did a good job to finish fourth in a higher-graded race here last week. Draws a couple of spots wider but this looks a suitable assignment. ETERNAL GOLD (7) is first up for four-and-a-half months but was racing in stronger company last time in. Readied with a series of trials and draws for a trail so can open this campaign with a positive effort. ROCKSIE ROCK (6) draws wide but there was merit in the latest effort when beaten only 3m into fourth at Newcastle.

Last start was well beaten into fifth behind Between Decks at this track over 1720m on July 9 at $4. Raced better the start before that with a solid effort when 2nd (Sr3) over 2125m at this track was 3rd-2.12 at the bell, beaten a head by Diletto (2:40.20) on July 2 at $18. Race fit now and has winning claims from a good draw.

Failed to impress last start; was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr4) over 2125m at this track beaten 22 m by Grey Cadillac (2:34.60) on July 9 at $18. Showed ability the outing before when he won by a head (Sr2) at this track (2:40.20) beating Brookessmartdancer in on July 2 at $4 at the bell was leading 1.72. May bounce back.
