Menangle Race 2

Bestinbeds.com.au Pace (Christmas Gift Heat 2)

Stake: $22,440

ROCKNROLL HAMMER (4) led when resuming as a hot favourite here last week and was only edged out by a nose. That was his first appearance since tackling good company over the Brisbane winter carnival and he strikes at 50 per cent when second-up so can progress enough to atone. WHISKEY CAVALIER (5) continues to race well, placing in all four starts since winning here. Came from a wider barrier than this in each of those outings so the better draw could see him deliver. Queensland Derby winner MAJOR HOT (2) failed as a hot favourite in his first Sydney outing but he is much better than that. Has had two months off since but has been readied with two nice trials so is worth another chance. JIMMY JAMES MAGUIRE (7) will be fitter for a second from a wider barrier at his local debut last week. Go well.

Last start 8th (Sr2) over 2240m at Melton, beaten 17 m by Young Bluey (2:41.60) in NR 80 to 89 on November 23 at $26. Before that, a solid effort when 2nd (Sr2) over 2150m at St Arnaud, at the bell was 2nd-1.2 beaten 12 m by Young Bluey (2:36.30) in NR up to 95 on November 10 at $15. Has the inside so could play a role.

Resuming after a spell of nine weeks. Ran only once last preparation running when well beaten into ninth behind Terry at this track over 2300m in a NR up to 95 on September 28 at $2.40. Queensland Derby winner who was readied with two nice trials and could show his best.

Solid return to racing first up game effort when 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m after showing early speed at this track, beaten a nose by Miki Pins (1:49.70) in 4yo+ 0W/20K Stakes on November 23 at $1.35. Missed narrowly when fresh and with improvement likely can go one better.

Good run when a close second after showing early speed, behind Mick Danger at this track over 2300m in a NR up to 95 on November 9 at $2.25. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Terry at this track over 2300m in a NR up to 95 on November 23 at $3.80. Genuine threat from a better draw.

Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr6) over 2887m at Young, beaten 30 m by Swayzee (3:35.60) in No NR on November 8 at $51. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr4) over 2240m at Melton beaten 24 m by Triple Eight (2:37.60) in No NR on October 26 at $101. Looking to others.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Renegade at Addington over 1980m in a 3yo+ on October 18 at $14.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Dom Toretto at this track over 2300m in a NR up to 80 on November 23 at $1.50. Capable of going well.

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr8) over 2300m at this track, beaten 16 m by Terry (2:45.30) in NR up to 95 on November 23 at $31. Two runs back won by a head when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at this track (1:52.30) beating Desiderio in NR up to 80 on November 16 at $5.50. Finds a few better. This looks a tough task.

Good performance when beaten by 6 m finishing fifth behind I Break The Line at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 95 on November 2 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Craftmans Charlie at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 95 on November 16 at $9.50. No surprise if he played a role at odds.
