Tamworth Race 2

Hazells Tamworth - Danny Mackney Pacing For Pink Pace

Prize Money: $6,936

VALORIX (5) wasn't disgraced at his latest appearance and produced a good effort to place at Newcastle prior, racing three wide in the middle stages before working to the front and sticking on. Has some upside and this looks a suitable assignment. TRY CATCHING ME (9) has been racing well with a string of top-four finishes since a win at this venue. May need an ounce of luck from the back row but looks close to another success after missing by just a head here last week. SLICK AND SUAVE (1) has been coming from wider or back row draws of late but managed a Newcastle second two back. Should get the favours from the ace draw. MERRYWOOD LOU (3) placed from a similar draw to this three back at Penrith so can be competitive.

Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track was 8th-13.71 at the bell, beaten 7 m by Sparkling Sue (1:58.50) in NR 40 to 43 on April 16 at $151. Two runs back 10th (Fr3) over 1980m at this track, beaten 40 m by General Rocker (2:28.10) in 0-1 WIN on March 26 at $101. This looks far too tough.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Cinnamon at Narrabri over 1760m in a No NR on April 12 at $51. Then a handy effort when a close second after a quick start, behind Esperanza at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 47 on April 30 at $2. Close to a win.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
