Bathurst Race 1

Trainer Of The Year: Annabel & Rob Archibald Mdn Hcp

Stake: $29,430

KUWAIT (2) resumes after going under narrowly when collared at Kembla Grange in fast time over 1300m last April. Blinkers come off and the two trials should have him forward enough for this. Gets the right run from the draw. ZOUFAME (4) Zoustar colt from a Choisir mare on debut for the Baker yard. Has improved in all four trials and finds a winnable race. SENJUTSU (3) Fastnet Rock gelding from Rippled on debut for the Baker stable. Has looked good in his last two trials and expected to figure prominently. BLARNEY STONE (5) fourth up for this and has minor place claims at best. Gets a more economical run today.

Comments
Second run back. First-up after six months got back early 6th of 10 at Tamworth Mdn-Sw on August 7 over 1000m, on a slow track; 3 len behind See You Then with 59kg at $101. Previously second-up 3rd of 11 at Narromine Mdn on June 24 2024 over 1100m, on rain affected going; 2.25 len behind Grand Oyster carrying 54.5kg at $61. Look for a much better performance.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield
