Penrith Race 4 - Markets @ Penrith Showground Every Thursday Pace
HAPPY TOO YA (5) was in the money at Newcastle two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Newcastle, beaten 9 metres. Good enough to put himself in the winners' stall. TIL HEAVENS ROCKN NZ (2) won at this track two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at his latest appearance over 1720m at this track, beaten 8 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of a return to winning ways. MAURLEN BOY (6) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Menangle. Can turn things around back in this grade. POLLY PUT KETTLEON (4) disappointed last time when eighth over 2125m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Sr1) over 1720m at this track, beaten 8 m by Wingman Lou (2:03.20) on August 6 at $34. Showed ability the race before when he won by 4 m when quickly away, (Fr1) at this track (2:04.70) beating Whereishe in on July 30 at $6.50 at the bell was leading 0.55. Sure to go well.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at Newcastle beaten 9 m by Little Demon (1:53.60) on August 7 at $3.70. Before that, a solid effort when 2nd (Fr7) over 1609m after showing early pace at Newcastle, beaten a head by Nick Of Time (1:53.70) on July 31 at $2.80. Should be in the finish.
