Forbes Race 2

Lachlan Valley Vet Clinic Pace

Stake: $7,491

TERRAGONG SWINGER (8) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 9 metres from the winner in third over 1680m at this track. Drawn to enjoy a nice run, with luck possibly playing a role at some point. This is a nice drop in grade, so he is sure to prove tough to beat. MONDOS REASON (1) has not raced for a year. Looks forward enough for this return after a minor placing in a recent trial. Has the benefit of a good draw. Sure to be right there at the finish. ROCKIN SWEET (5) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1680m at this track. Should run a big race. CALM REASON (2) last appeared when sixth over 1640m at Blayney 11 weeks ago. Must be respected, especially from a handy draw.

Returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Jungle Dragon at Blayney over 1640m in a 3yo No NR on February 16 at $31. A big run would not surprise.

Last start 6th (Fr4) over 2260m at Bathurst was leading by 4.12 at the bell, beaten 12 m by Riviere (2:49.90) in MAIDEN on April 23 at $23. At the start before was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr5) over 1660m at Parkes, beaten 9 m by Ultimate Equus (2:06.40) in MAIDEN on April 19 at $16. Better than recent form suggests.

Well-beaten 9 days ago at this track over 1680m, before that 6th (Sr3) over 1660m at Parkes, beaten 17 m by I Have Faith (2:07.60) in MAIDEN on April 19 at $101. Others make more appeal.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr5) over 2260m at Bathurst was 6th-12.1 at the bell, beaten 12 m by Riviere (2:49.90) in MAIDEN on April 23 at $51. At his previous start 7th (Fr2) over 1660m at Parkes beaten 15 m by Ultimate Equus (2:06.40) in MAIDEN on April 19 at $7. Anticipate a far better run this time.

Solid performance when beaten by 2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Iamahunter at Coolamon over 1760m in a 4yo+ MAIDEN on April 21 at $2.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Our Dance Monkey at this track over 1680m in a MAIDEN on April 25 at $9.80. Sure to be right there at the business end.
