Tamworth Race 8 - Tmfm95.5 Afternoons With Dan Saunders Pace
LOCHINVAR JAG (2) added to a string of wins and placings when he took full advantage of starting on the pegs to register a win last start at Penrith, getting home by 3 metres after taking control early in proceedings. Another nice draw on the front line should allow him to push forward again so can make it back-to-back wins. IM LORD TOMMY (3) was outclassed at Menangle last time but was good in scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at this venue. Has the benefit of a good draw and is well placed so can bounce back. ROUGE BLING (9) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, finishing runner-up from a similar draw here two back before a fourth most recently at Menangle. JAYJAYBENNY (4) draws better than when fourth last start and has claims off a win here prior.

Last start was well beaten into tenth behind Cigano at Menangle over 1609m in a 4yo+ on November 7 at $61. Performed better the start before where he won by a head as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr4) at this track (1:54.90) beating Rouge Bling in on October 29 at $2.60 at the bell was leading 0.98. Better placed and has winning claims.
