Bathurst Race 8

Yabby Dam Farms 2yo Pace

Stake: $18,360

BLISSFUL LOVER (11) comes here off a last-start win at Menangle over 1609m, scoring by 4 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Finds a suitable assignment and will prove very tough to beat. WATTOSULTIMATEFIRE (9) scored a dominant win off the inside draw on debut at this course and distance last time out. Shouldn't spend a penny from this draw and the sprint lane may come in handy. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running another big race. MACHZINE MAHONEY (10) is one of the main contenders after winning her past two starts, the latest at this circuit two weeks ago. Difficult to ignore that sort of form. HIGHVIEW BONNIE (5) last appeared when runner-up over 1730m here 12 weeks ago. Must be respected.

Won on debut by 8 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at this track (2:03.60) beating Your Shuffle in 2yo on August 5 at $1.65. Has to contend with an awkward draw but is a likely contender.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 4 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at Menangle (1:53.30) beating Gordons Ghost in 2yo on July 25 at $1.30 at the bell was leading 1.99. Two runs back won by 18 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at this track (2:06.00) beating Complimentry Drink in 2yo on July 15 at $1.15 at the bell was leading 6.46. Big chance with any luck from the draw.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
