Young Race 6 - Australian Hotel Pace
MERRYWOOD ROSIE (2) scored at Parkes three runs ago but has been unplaced in two subsequent runs, the latest when fourth over 2170m at Junee, beaten 16 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a similar line up and she is capable of another bold performance. JEWEL MISTRESS (3) scored at Parkes two runs ago before having her colours lowered when eighth at her latest appearance over 1730m at Bathurst, beaten 17 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw and rates a leading hope if anywhere near her best. KOLOURA CLARE (1) should be at her peak for this. Finished fourth over 1720m at Dubbo at the latest appearance nine days ago. Sure to give the top fancies plenty to think about. DRIVE TO THE BEACH (10) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at Junee over 2170m.

Failed to impress last start; 8th (Fr3) over 1730m after showing early pace at Bathurst, at the bell was 5th-9.63 beaten 17 m by Wishas Darling (2:04.00) in NR up to 60 on March 18 at $23. Showed ability the race before when she ran on from midfield and won by 1.5 m (Sr3) at Parkes (2:03.10) beating Butter Cup in NR up to 50 M on March 6 at $8.50 at the bell was 6th-8.2. Sure to be there at the business end.

Two back was tenth behind Ratatattat at Bathurst over 1730m in a NR up to 50 on March 11 at $6.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Time To Torque at Junee over 2170m in a NR up to 58 on March 17 at $8. In the mix with further improvement to come on the latest run.
