Penrith Race 2

Prize Money: $9,792

LOCHINVAR JAG (2) stretched his winning run to five when he raced parked before scoring by 1.7m at Newcastle last time. Three of those wins have been from this barrier, one of them at this venue. Can do it again. FOXY DADA (3) draws well and didn't do a bad job when fourth at Menangle on Saturday. Drops in grade so is a chance on the back up. ROCKNROLL GIG (1) was far from disgraced from the back line last week and is much better served by this draw. FIRE FOX NZ (6) draws wider but did a good job for a 1.5m second here last week.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 1.75 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at Newcastle (1:52.50) beating Princess Mickayla in NR up to 62 on April 10 at $1.20 at the bell was 2nd-3.58. Two runs back tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.75 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Bathurst (2:03.80) beating Studleigh Melise in NR up to 68 on April 1 at $1.35 at the bell was 2nd-8.11. The good draw can see him add to the winning streak.

Failed to impress last start; 9th (Fr7) over 2260m after showing early pace at Bathurst was 2nd-1.1 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Jorge Street (2:44.00) in NR up to 80 on April 8 at $21. Showed ability the race before when he won by 1.1 m after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:03.00) beating Fire Fox in NR up to 90 on March 26 at $13 at the bell was leading 2.66. Worth including.
