Penrith Race 5

Major Oak Theatre Restaurant Pace

Prize Money: $11,832

BLACK ONYX (9) has been improving with each start since a spell and put the writing on the wall last time when he came from this row and finished 4 metres from the winner in second at this venue. Race fit now so could go one better. LIGHT ME UP NZ (4) hasn't had the best of luck of late so may be going better than the form suggests. Draws well and did a good job to place from a wider barrier at Newcastle last month. ITZMINEONTHELINE (7) has been racing in higher-graded events so is better placed having won at Newcastle the last time she tackled this class last month. MR TEDDY NZ (5) wasn't too far away from a back row draw last time and did a good job for second at Menangle prior.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 9th (Fr3) over 2125m after showing early speed at this track was 5th-11.04 at the bell, beaten 15 m by Major Art (2:34.00) in NR up to 80 on April 9 at $9. The start before 8th (Fr5) over 1609m after being wide early at Newcastle was 3rd-4.5 at the bell, beaten 17 m by Jalaneel (1:52.70) in NR up to 90 on March 28 at $10. Better than last start and can improve sharply.

Six-year-old entire who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 9th (Fr6) over 1609m after showing early pace at Menangle, beaten 15 m by Classic Mission (1:52.00) in NR up to 95 on April 11 at $21. Suited back in grade so expecting a much better run this time.
