Penrith Race 3 - Bird Yard Big Band Jazz @ Club Paceway Aug 2 Pace
LOCHINVAR JAG (4) has been excellent of late and made it two wins in a row when he led and dug deep at his latest appearance at Newcastle, getting home by a nose. Came from one spot wider than this when cruising home at this circuit and distance prior. Can land the hat trick. HAPPY TOO YA (5) led from a similar draw and kept going to record a commanding 10 metre win last week, tacking his record at this circuit and distance to three from five. Big chance again. BEV THE GOAT NZ (1) enjoys a class drop on her last attempt at Menangle. Took her strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent by coming from the back row to win prior. Can be competitive from the ace draw. ROCLEA IMAGE (2) is better placed after racing at Menangle of late and could show more from a low draw.

Didn't do much at the last run, was well back in the run when 10th (Fr3) over 1720m at this track, beaten 25 m by Happy Too Ya (2:02.90) on July 16 at $126. Before that 9th (Fr1) over 1720m at this track was 6th-10.99 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Captain Ritchie (2:05.20) on July 2 at $10. Not keen on his chances in this line-up.
