Nowra Race 6

Cumbria Jack @ Meticulous Lodge

Stake: $1,647

WIRED UP BEAR (8) placed on debut then improved nicely to open account with a 1.75 lengths win (20.28) at Goulburn over 350m. Looks tough to beat again. RAPID STRIKE (1) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 2.75 lengths second (19.57) in a Grade 5 at Bulli. Got the money at her only try from this box. Overdue and gets her chance. ROCKING HIGHWAY (2) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive before that in his sharp 20.67 win at this track over 365m. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. PINK ASHBY (7) is a course and distance winner worth keeping in mind.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 2.75 lengths second over 340m Bulli in 19.57. Should be right in the finish.

Backs up after winning easily by 3.5 lengths at this track (20.80) beating Any More Coins in a Grade 5 on September 9 four days ago. This is much harder assignment and she needs to find another gear.
