Bathurst Race 8

The Tab App Pace

Stake: $7,630

ZARAS SPECIAL (1) made a good start to her career two weeks ago, coming from a much wider barrier for third at this circuit and distance. She is open to natural improvement off that and will relish the ace draw. SHAUN SHANNON (5) led from a wide barrier before fading to midfield when resuming here. He'll be fitter for that and draws a few spots closer to the pegs so is worth another chance. DELIGHTFUL MARY (7) was in the market on debut but made a mess of the start. Has placed at the trials since so can do better. LETSTACOBOUTIT (6) is in the mix following a series of top-four finishes, the latest from the back line.
