Menangle Race 8

Irt Your Horse Our Passion Pace

Prize Money: $9,996

MISSAUDACIOUS (4) has come from wider barriers in each of her three starts this time in and there was merit in the latest effort when beaten 3.6 metres into fourth in a higher-graded race for the mares at this circuit and distance. Race fit now and can produce her best in this suitable assignment. PROMISING (9) did a good job to overcome a back row draw at his most recent outing, scoring by 5 metres at Penrith. Has to contend with a very wide barrier but with even luck he has the talent to take care of this field. MONTALBANO (8) has had two months off but has trialled. Draws deep but was tackling stronger company before the let-up so this grade should suit. BANKSY NZ (2) last appeared when third here nine weeks ago. Must be respected fresh from a good draw.

Backs up three days after he failed to impress 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 22 m by Tukaha (1:51.50) in NR up to 75 on February 14 at $41. Before that 10th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 5th-8.34 beaten 11 m by Bartello (1:51.90) in NR up to 75 on February 10 at $51. Needs an easier race.

Solid run when beaten by 1.75 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Miki Cohen at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 75 on February 3 at $17. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind Bartello at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 75 on February 10 at $15. Sure to play a major role.

Didn't do much last start, was well back in the run when 8th (Fr10) over 1609m at this track was 10th-18.83 at the bell, beaten 7 m by Bartello (1:51.90) in NR up to 75 on February 10 at $41. Before that failed to finish when he ran at Penrith on January 29 over 1720m. Can't recommend against this lot.

Improved last start with a game effort when 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 1.4 m by Vinke B (1:52.60) in NR up to 80 on January 24 at $11. Capable of another big run.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr7) over 1609m after showing early pace at Newcastle, at the bell was leading 1.15 beaten a neck by I Break The Line (1:51.90) in NR 72 to 80 on February 13 at $5.50. Progressing well. Top prospects.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
