Kapunda Race 6

2026 Southern Cross Equipment Group Kapunda Pacing Cup (Sky 2)

Prize Money: $11,000

DHAULAGIRI NZ (1) has been racing in great heart. Did a fine job last time out when successful by 9 metres over 2612m at Boort. Will enjoy a nice run from this far more favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field and he can feature in the finish. BELLEZZA NERA (6) settled in the leading division then took control and found plenty to score narrowly over 2230m at Globe Derby Park four weeks ago. Meets a comparable field so he can certainly win again. HEZROCKINROYALTY (9) ended last prep with a sixth at Globe Derby Park over 2230m ten weeks ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. ARTILLERY (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 3.5 metres at Port Pirie over 2050m.

Nine-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Boort and Mildura.

Expected to go well.

Last start good run despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr6) over 2050m at Port Pirie, at the bell was 4th-7.8 beaten 5 m by Artillery (2:29.50) in NR 70 or better on March 2 at $12. Two runs back won by a neck as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Globe Derby Park (2:11.40) beating Artillery in No NR on February 16 at $1.50 at the bell was leading 2.4. Should be there at the business end.

Comments

Been racing consistently with 3 consecutive minor placings. Strong performance last time out 2nd (Fr3) over 2050m after showing early speed at Port Pirie, at the bell was 7th-13.4 beaten 3.5 m by Artillery (2:29.50) in NR 70 or better on March 2 at $11. Might find this a bit tough.

Expected Settling Position: Pace
