Wentworth Park Race 3

Wenty Leagues

Prize Money: $9,650

BOTH BOWERS ACE (1) made light work of the tricky draw with a fast early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing second (30.18) at this track over 520m. Can measure up this time. CLASSY BANDIT (2) is a consistent dog overall, in the frame at seven of 23 starts including nine wins but missed the frame latest when sixth (25.71) over 457m at Temora. Goes very well from this box. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. SECRET BANDIT (5) is worth forgiving last start after finishing seventh (25.76) at Temora over 457m. Form here at this distance is sound. Yet to taste defeat from two runs out of this box. One of the better hopes. FLASH ETHICS (4) generally performs well here at this distance.

Ordinary effort last start when seventh over 457m at Temora. Prior to that won by 2.5 lengths at Temora (25.60) beating Cumbria Benny in a NG on March 8. Capable of taking this out.

Hit the frame at Bulli last time when a 1.5 lengths second but did record a good 26.27 over the 472m journey. Place prospects appear best again.
