Wentworth Park Race 1

We Stand With Tasmania

Prize Money: $8,900

BRAX KEEPING (1) recorded a win over the 520m at this track in a slick 29.85 last start. Hard to top on the time from last start. VAYA CON DIOS (2) turned in a plain run last time when sixth at Bulli over 472m behind Cumbria Jack (26.31) in a NG. Was in the money prior to that. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Has ability and can measure up. BALLYNEALE BOLT (6) is a super honest type rarely out of the placings, including wins at his last two on end, the latest at The Gardens (29.19). Has an impeccable record at this journey winning all two. Rates a winning chance on best. SPRING WITNESS (7) is right in the mix.

Eye-catching performance tracking the speed and going on to score by a half a length in a Grade 5 last start at this track, clocking a slick 29.85 over the 520m trip. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Fast starter. Latest effort finished 6th in a NG on February 6 over 472m at Bulli behind Cumbria Jack beaten 8 lengths (26.31). Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

Backs up after winning by 1.5 lengths at Gosford (22.12) beating Ten Bob Note in a Grade 5 on February 10 four days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start comfortably by 7 lengths at The Gardens (29.19) beating Homer Mulwee in a Grade 5 on January 23. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.

Was out of placings last time (30.07) at Dubbo in a Grade 4/5, finishing fifth and beaten 12 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Suited here and expected to run well.
