Menangle Race 5

Bestinbeds.com.au Kevin Newman Ffa (Listed Classic)

Stake: $33,354

BAY OF BISCAY (10) returns to Sydney for the first time since completing the Hondo Grattan-Chariots of Fire double earlier in the year. Since then he resumed with a fighting win at Melton, working to the front and digging deep to score narrowly. Has to overcome a wide barrier but goes very well second up with three wins and a placing from four attempts. CAPTAINS KNOCK (9) was very good from tough barriers through the Inter Dominion series, finishing runner-up in two heats before he was buried away on the pegs when midfield in the final. He is well up to winning this. KINGMAN (4) powered to a winning start for Luke McCarthy, cruising home by 35m here last week. This is stronger but he draws lower and it was hard not be impressed by that last effort. CYA ART (3) was very brave with top-four finishes in all three Inter Dominion appearances including his third in the final. Respect from a low draw. CHEVRON ART (2) brings good form from Queensland and draws to be competitive.

Beaten favourite last start when second at Albion Park on July 22. Was victorious the start before at Redcliffe on July 18. Has been racing well in Queensland and a good draw should see him in the finish.

Good run when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Speak The Truth at Albion Park over 2680m in a No NR on July 12 at $13. Then a terrific effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third after being driven well back, after a quick start, behind Leap To Fame at Albion Park over 3157m in a No NR on July 19 at $71. Very brave when placed in the Inter Dominion Final last start and draws to be competitive.

Last start scored a big 35 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (2:40.20) beating Vite Monet in 4-020yo+ 0W/20K Stakes on July 26 at $1.25. Very impressive for the new stable last start and while up in grade could deliver again.

Returns after nine weeks in the paddock. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into tenth after a quick start, behind Kingmaker at this track over 1609m in a LR No NR on May 31 at $21. Readied with a trial and could open the campaign with a forward performance.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 m by Ardens Ace (1:51.80) in No NR on July 26 at $3.80. Two runs back won by 2.75 m as favourite (Fr2) at this track (2:45.30) beating Roclea Image in LR No NR on July 12 at $1.70 at the bell was leading 1.25. Has been going well but must be respected.

Last start was well beaten into seventh behind Leap To Fame at Albion Park over 3157m in a No NR on July 19 at $21. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Fr7) over 2680m after racing wide at Albion Park, beaten 3 m by Speak The Truth (3:13.30) in No NR on July 12 at $2.50. Will enjoy the class drop after big efforts through the Inter Dominion series.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Last preparation only had 3 starts before going for a break. Returned to racing with a handy win by a nose as favourite when quickly away, (Fr5) at Melton (2:00.10) beating Triple Eight in No NR on June 28 at $1.50 at the bell was leading 3.01. Has an impressive record here and is good enough to overcome the draw.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
