News Express Garbutt Pathways H

Prize Money: $2,400

PANAMA LOCO (1) is boxed nicely on the inside. Latest effort finished 6th over 380m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (22.37) behind Verruckt in a P5 on September 18. Rates on top and should go close. SIMPLY REIGN (5) ran good time (29.41) when placing two back at this track but missed the frame latest in a Restricted WIN at this track. Can improve sharply here. GIFTED LILLY (2) turned in a moderate performance last time when sixth at this track over 380m behind Oklahoma (22.29) in a Grade 4/5. Expected to feature in the finish. BLUE JET TRAIN (8) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.37) in a P5, finishing a 5.5 lengths sixth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Key chance and should go close.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when she finished 6th in a Grade 4/5 on October 13 over 380m at this track behind Oklahoma beaten 7 lengths (22.29). Leading chance on best form.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th over 380m at this track beaten 3 lengths (22.34) behind Hara's Brian in a Restricted WIN on October 9. Placed two back at this track. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.
