Darwin Race 1

Ladbrokes Mega Multi Hcp (70)

Stake: $25,422

HENNESSY LAD (2) sat on the pace and stuck on well to score by a neck this distance last start running his best race since the switch from a smart Victorian yard. Has been kept on the fresh side and can go on with the job. Stablemate AWASH (1) just missed in the same contest racing forward and has a weight swing in his favour. Has the rail and will get every chance to go one better. VIERI (5) improved again winning a 54 by a space. Tumbles in weight and that gives him a chance. KANGAROO COURT (3) led and was beaten 2.3L in the HENNESSY LAD race and will give a sight again. SHAKATTAK (4) is in the right yard but needs to lift to be any threat.

Recent form sound. Comes off a 29 day let-up. Last start raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a neck at this track Bm76 September 26 over 1600m defeating Awash with 55.5kg at $3.80. The race before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at this track 0 - 66 on August 2 over 1600m, neck behind The Men Went Home with 61kg at $5. Confidence back and is worth following up.
