Menangle Race 5

Irt Horse Transport Pace

Prize Money: $20,400

RIPP (9) will enjoy a class drop after chasing some smart ones in last week's midfield effort. He cops a wide draw but has performed well from out there before and overcame a second row draw when he scored two back at Bathurst. SERG BLANCO NZ (8) was a beaten favourite when midfield here last week but that was his first outing for five weeks so the hitout should have done him good. Draws wider but look for big improvement. VITE MONET (3) enjoys a handy class drop from Listed level and led from one spot wider to score here prior so expect him to be prominent. SMOOTH BUZZ (7) can be competitive again after placing behind an in-form rival at this circuit and distance last week.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts. Placed last start 2nd (Fr6) over 1609m at Newcastle beaten 3 m by Saint Crusader (1:50.80) on September 11 at $11. Before that 2nd (Fr3) over 1720m after showing early speed at Penrith beaten a nose by Grosso Naso (2:02.40) on September 3 at $1.50. Gets the ace draw so maybe a place.

4th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 8th-17.95 beaten 7 m by Springfield Affair (1:49.40) on September 19 at $101. Before that 7th (Sr2) over 1730m at Bathurst was 7th-10.53 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Bettorlightem Up (2:03.20) on September 9 at $10. Might need easier.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (Fr2) over 2300m at this track, beaten 35 m by Captains Knock (2:39.00) in LR on September 12 at $101. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 5 m win as favourite when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (2:43.90) beating Rocknroll Hammer in on September 5 at $2.25 at the bell was leading 3.51. Draws well so a forward performance expected.

Last start 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track was 5th-10.59 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Springfield Affair (1:49.40) on September 19 at $2.80. Before that, 4th (Sr1) over 1740m at Riverina Paceway was 3rd-12 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Wicked Confession (2:00.60) on August 14 at $6. Disappointed last time but worth another chance.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Solid last start; 6th (Fr1) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was 3rd-5.08 beaten 7 m by Max Delight (1:50.80) on September 19 at $31. Showed ability the race before when he won by 2.75 m as favourite (Sr2) at Bathurst (2:00.60) beating I Break The Line in on September 2 at $2.10 at the bell was leading 5.6. Rates highly. Strong contender with even luck.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
