Tamworth Race 2

Sky Racing Active Pace

Stake: $7,491

EIFFEL FROM HEAVEN (7) turned in a strong performance last start when she kept chasing for a 1.6m second in a higher-graded race at this circuit. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and if she gets the gaps she looks likely to play a major role. FRONTLINER (1) had this same draw when he finished second in stronger company at this venue last week. Expect him to play a role in this suitable assignment. TASMANS DELIGHT (5) looks close to a win after placing in two of her last three starts here, the latest a second from the back line. UNCLE GREGORY (8) is in the mix following a fourth from this barrier at his most recent appearance.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 7th (Fr5) over 1980m at this track was 9th-22.6 at the bell, beaten 12 m by Rippin Good Feelin (2:29.40) in NR up to 47 on May 22 at $14. Showed ability the outing before when she tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 3.5 m as favourite (Fr4) at this track (1:59.00) beating Hey Dude in NR up to 36 on May 15 at $2.40 at the bell was 2nd-1.8. Deserves another chance.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 70 m by Pure Dragon (1:58.30) in NR up to 55 on May 15 at $71. Before that was driven from back in the field when 10th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by My Rock Moves (1:58.10) in NR up to 47 on May 8 at $151. This will be too tough.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Safe Jewels at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 36 on May 15 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second behind Dancin With Lush at this track over 1980m in a NR up to 47 on May 22 at $12. Likely to play a major role.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Notmuchuptop at Newcastle over 1609m in a NR 34 to 38 on May 12 at $7. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Fleur Bella at this track over 1980m in a NR up to 47 on May 22 at $12. Hard to beat.
