Illawarra Grange Race 1 - Thank You Chris Barrett Super Mdn Hcp
ALBERT PALAIS (1) has been thereabouts in all four starts in his first campaign and finds a winnable contest despite drawing out. Posted wide up on the speed and never surrendered with a game fifth over 1400m in a Super Maiden at Warwick Farm. Will push forward and figure prominently. HOZUMI (5) was slow into stride on debut and like the way he closed late at the big odds when seventh over 1400m at Warwick Farm. Should come on from that performance and stays in the calculations. CONFUCIUS (7) tracked the speed and boxed on steadily on debut before fading late when fifth over 1200m at Kembla Grange. Has claims despite drawing out. PALM TREE (12) began only fairly on debut and never got into the contest when last in a Super Mdn over 1250m at Canterbury. Expecting a better effort today.

Most recently 5th of 11 in a Super 3yo Mdn at Warwick Farm on September 2 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Sing Your Song with 57.5kg at $11. Before that ran on strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 9 in a Super 3yo Mdn at Warwick Farm on August 19 over 1300m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Queen's Gamble with 57.5kg at $10. Back in grade and a win looks imminent.

Third-up today. First-up ran last in a small field in a Cg&E Mdn at Kembla Grange on August 8 over 1300m, 6 len behind Skystone carrying 58.5kg at $11. Second-up ran second last of 8 in a Super Mdn at Beaumont (Newcastle) on August 25 over 1250m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Montresor with 57.5kg at $21. Should be cherry ripe third-up and improvement is anticipated.

Raced two times to date. At debut, 6th of 11 in a Mdn at Kembla Grange on August 15 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Schumacher carrying 57kg at $10. Last start 2nd of 8 in a F&M Mdn-Sw at Hawkesbury on September 5 over 1400m, 4 len behind Lady Capitalist with 58kg at $15. Needs to lift on the last run to be competitive this time.

Was a despised roughie at debut, got back early 7th of 11 in a Super 3yo Mdn at Warwick Farm on September 2 over 1400m, 3 len behind Sing Your Song with 55kg at $101. Strips fitter after catching the eye first up, improver.

Jumped at long odds at debut, ran last in a small field in a Super Mdn at Canterbury on August 26 over 1250m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Piedmont with 52.5kg at $26. Won't find this any easier and must improve sharply.
