Penrith Race 9 - Tme Training 3yo Pace
A BUCK TEN (8) resumes from a spell of eight months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid third at this circuit and distance. Two trial wins suggest he is back in good order. Draws on the back row and if he gets the gaps could make a winning return. HUNTER STRIDE (2) made it four placings from as many starts this time in when he raced parked but stuck on for second at Menangle last time. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Could break through. CRUNCH IT (3) draws well and looks close to a win after two successive placings at this circuit and distance. Chance to break through. STEEL STRIDE (6) will be fitter for recent racing and owns a decent record at this distance so could show more.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.75 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Ya Racin Carl at Menangle over 1609m in a 3yo+ on October 20 at $10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind A Special Occasion at Menangle over 1609m in a 3yo on October 27 at $12. Has a low draw and could break through.

Didn't do much last time out, 8th (Fr3) over 1730m at Bathurst, beaten 55 m by Belle Alchera (2:06.60) in 3yo on November 4 at $41. Before that 6th (Fr1) over 1730m at Bathurst, at the bell was 4th-8.24 beaten 10 m by Just Keep Chiming (2:06.00) in 3yo on October 28 at $41. Unlikely to threaten.

At the start before was well back in the run when 10th (Fr6) over 2125m at this track, at the bell was 9th-13.67 beaten 16 m by Final Promise (2:37.00) on October 29 at $9.50.

Resuming after eight months off the scene. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into third behind Inside Magic at this track over 1720m in a 3yo on March 26 at $2. Progressing well. Capable and should be ready to go off two trial wins.
