Tamworth Race 8 - Multiquip Commercial Hatchery Pace

ULTIMATE DIVA (9) went back last start then worked home fairly to finish 8 metres from the winner in sixth at Menangle over 1609m, that effort following a modest fifth at this track the run prior. Not drawn to best so may need a 10/10 drive. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. QUICKSHIFT GIRL (8) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.5 metres from the winner in second over 1980m at this track. Drawn to enjoy a nice run, with luck possibly playing a role at some point. Good enough to put herself in the winners' stall. BAT MATSON (5) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at this track over 1980m. Hard to find fault. PURE DRAGON (2) is in the mix following a fifth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Didn't do much at the last run, was driven from back in the field when 10th (Fr5) over 1980m at this track, beaten 55 m by Im Lord Tommy (2:23.70) on September 24 at $151. Before that 6th (Sr4) over 1980m at this track was 9th-17.45 at the bell, beaten 5.5 m by Three Rivers (2:26.40) on September 10 at $71. This will be too tough.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr4) over 1980m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track was 6th-7.64 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Bling The Kash (2:25.20) on October 1 at $34. Before that 5th (Fr4) over 1980m at this track, at the bell was 4th-4.06 beaten 5 m by Three Rivers (2:26.40) on September 10 at $11. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
