Penrith Race 3

Australia Day Chisel Show Jan 26 @ Club Paceway Pace

Prize Money: $9,792

ERUPT STRIDE (10) made it two wins from his last four appearances four weeks ago, getting home by 4 metres over 1720m at this track. Not drawn to best so may need a 10/10 drive. Meets a comparable field and he can salute once again. CASH AND BLING (7) is racing well with six top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a third at Menangle over 1609m. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. Meets a similar line up so he can add to the impressive recent efforts. SELSEY BILL (8) is the next best after finishing third over 2125m at this track last time out. CAPTAIN BLOOD (9) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1720m at this track. Something for the Multiples: ERUPT STRIDE NZ (10) SELSEY BILL NZ (8)

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run was well back in the run when 8th (Fr4) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 8 m by Crackabrie (1:53.50) in NR up to 55 on November 14 2023 at $51. Has only trialled once and might need this pipe-opener.

Fair performance when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Compete at Menangle over 1609m in a NR 56 to 65 on December 10 at $5. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third behind Dom Toretto at Menangle over 1609m in a 3 0K/5 Starts on December 17 at $13. Going well and looks set to feature.

Improved last start with a solid effort when 3rd (Sr1) over 2125m at this track was 3rd-4.25 at the bell, beaten 1.75 m by Admirable (2:35.00) in NR up to 63 on December 19 at $4.80. One of the primary contenders.

Two back was well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind Compete at Menangle over 1609m in a NR up to 70 on December 17 at $31. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third behind Vinke B at this track over 1720m in a NR up to 70 on December 23 at $5.40. Great chance to find an overdue win.

In good form recently. Last start won by 4 m as favourite (Sr2) at this track (2:03.60) beating Admirable in NR up to 65 on November 28 at $2.50 at the bell was 2nd-0.7. Sure to be in the finish again.
