Belmont Race 3 - Paddy Ward - 2026 Wa Racing Hall Of Fame Inductee (Bm66+)
WITH DISCRETION (2) didn't have the best of luck last start at this track and trip, missing by 1.7L as the odds-on favourite. His win two back was superb however and he's racing in top order with Pike sticking. Can stay out of trouble this time and get back to winning ways. SWEET SURRENDER (6) is knocking on the door of another win, missing by 0.4L here last week in an easier race. Her figures stack up to a race of this calibre though and she'll carry less weight today. Can make her presence felt once again. ROMMEO (4) got back to winning ways here a couple of weeks ago when scoring in a photo finish. Drawn better this time with O'Donnell hopping on board and he can be in the finish once again. SISU SPIRIT (5) is racing well and steps out to this trip for the first time. Fiore sticks and he creates plenty of interest. CHOLLIMA (3) was better last time and won't be far away.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming got back early 11th of 15 in a Rtg 72+ at this track on July 25 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Zourun Run carrying 56kg at $61. Second-up ran second last of 11 in a Rtg 70+ at this track on August 8 over 1600m, on a wet track; 9 len behind Lillian carrying 57kg at $31. Can't recommend on that form, looking to others.

At the latest run 5th of 10 in a Rtg 66+ at this track on August 8 over 2200m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Rommeo with 56.5kg at $1.90. The run before that favourite; settled well back; won by 2.25 len at this track on July 25 over 2100m defeating Kisses From Kelly carrying 54kg at $2.60. Didn't have the best of luck last time and can bounce back to winning ways.

Most recently made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 15 in a Rtg 66+ at this track on July 25 over 2100m, 2.5 len behind With Discretion with 54.5kg at $21. The start before that didn't finish the race at Bunbury 0Mwly July 15 over 1705m. Capable of a strong showing.

Recent form sound. Most recently came home strongly from last on the turn; 2nd of 11 in a 0Mwly at Pinjarra Scarpside on August 12 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.1 len behind Stylax carrying 58kg at $6.50. Before that won by 0.5 len at Bunbury on July 30 over 1675m in soft going defeating Our Mate Archie carrying 55.5kg at $7.50. Has been racing well. Up in grade now but his recent form commands respect.

Racing well recently. Last start 2nd of 10 in a Grad Hcp 56+ at this track on August 15 over 2100m, long-neck behind Starwalker carrying 57.5kg at $6.50. The start before that 2nd of 15 in a Rtg 54+ at Northam on July 23 over 2200m, 1.4 len behind Warralea Lass carrying 59kg at $6. Right on the cusp and can go one better today.

At the latest run ran second last of 10 in a Rtg 66+ at this track on August 8 over 2200m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Rommeo with 54kg at $151. The start before that ran second last of 15 in a Rtg 66+ at this track on July 25 over 2100m, 10 len behind With Discretion with 54kg at $101. 10-year-old gelding who has not shown enough this prep for him to come into calculations.
