Ipswich Race 7 - Living Turf (Bm65)
One for the stayers. TAREX (1) has won two of his past three starts with the only failure coming in the Gatton Cup two back. Boasts a win around this circuit and will be rock-hard fit for this. Has the ability to score again. NIPPA'S NIGHTCAP (5) has a solid record here with a win and two placings from six spins and will appreciate the step-up to the 2210m now. Sure to prove tough to hold out. DEMARCAY (6) got the job done over this track and trip last time out and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Respect from the Waller yard. JUNGLE JET (3) is one from one over this distance range and is one for the exotics players. SLY CORNER (2) rounds out the selections.

Most recently eased back early on 9th of 12 at Doomben Bm65 on July 16 over 2050m, 4.5 len behind Tarex with 60.5kg at $16. Before that settled well back; won by 1.0 len at Gold Coast Bm65 July 5 over 1800m in soft going defeating Luton Hoo with 58.5kg at $9.50. Nicely placed and shouldn't be too far away.

Last start raced on the pace when 3rd of 12 at Grafton Bm58 on July 20 over 3170m, slow going 2.5 len behind Deemee with 60kg at $5. Before that raced on the pace when 3rd of 9 at Rockhampton Bm65 on July 5 over 2215m, slow going 1.5 len behind Okesutora with 56kg at $3.90. Rates well and definitely worth including in the multiples.
