3-10 Menangle 03Oct26 2300MS $20,400 0W/20K Stakes 4U Fr10 Jye Coney $4, btn 5.4m, wnr Forever Onthe Punt 0, 1:56.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Inconvenienced passing the 400m when Rocknroll Cowboy broke stride.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Saint Crusader at this track over 1609m in a 4yo+ on September 26 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Forever Onthe Punt at this track over 2300m in a 4yo+ on October 3 at $3.60. Ticking along well from wider barriers so gets his chance from the ace draw.

7-10 Menangle 26Sep26 1609MS $20,400 0W/20K Stakes 4U Fr5 Zara Fitzpatrick $12, btn 16.6m, wnr Saint Crusader 0, 1:50.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track was 4th-12.05 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Saint Crusader (1:50.80) in 4yo+ on September 26 at $12. At the start before solid effort when 3rd (Fr2) over 2300m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was 4th-10.39 beaten 7 m by Nymbal (2:41.50) in LR on September 19 at $61. Draws well so can be competitive.

7-10 Menangle 03Oct26 2300MS $20,400 0W/20K Stakes 4U Fr8 Joshua Gallagher $19, btn 21.4m, wnr Forever Onthe Punt 0, 1:56.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Checked passing the 400m when Rocknroll Cowboy broke stride.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (Fr8) over 2300m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 21 m by Forever Onthe Punt (2:46.10) in 4yo+ on October 3 at $19. Showed ability the race before when he won by a head after showing early speed, (Fr4) at Penrith (2:02.70) beating Hes A Meister in on September 24 at $3.50 at the bell was leading 4.9. Solid top-four prospects.

8-8 Menangle 12Sep26 1609MS $20,400 NR up to 95 Fr8 J P McCarthy $23, btn 22.2m, wnr Huxton 0, 1:51.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 22 m by Huxton (1:51.10) on September 12 at $23. Before that, was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr8) over 2300m at this track was 7th-15.72 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Vite Monet (2:43.90) on September 5 at $18. Likely improver from a better draw.

1-7 Terang 28Sep26 2180MS $7,000 NR 56 to 64 Fr4 Glen Craven $3, won by 4.8m, 2nd All Blazing Guns 0, 1:56.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Racing consistently. Last start posted a big 5 m win when quickly away, (Fr4) at Terang (2:38.30) beating All Blazing Guns in on September 28 at $2.80 at the bell was leading 3. Could measure up.

2-10 Menangle 03Oct26 2300MS $20,400 0W/20K Stakes 4U Fr5 Chris Geary $15, btn 4.9m, wnr Forever Onthe Punt 0, 1:56.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Inconvenienced approaching the 800m when Ultimate Empire gave ground sharply. Checked approaching the 400m when Major Art raced roughly and broke stride.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr5) over 2300m at this track was 9th-16.89 at the bell, beaten 5 m by Forever Onthe Punt (2:46.10) in 4yo+ on October 3 at $15. Go well again.

9-10 Menangle 03Oct26 2300MS $20,400 0W/20K Stakes 4U Fr4 Cameron Hart $2, btn 157.6m, wnr Forever Onthe Punt 0, 1:56.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke stride without interference passing the 400m, checking The Cid and Tiger Prince and inconveniencing Forever Onthe Punt, Fasting and Vinceo.

Broke when a beaten favourite last start when ninth at this track on October 3. Scored the start prior at this track on September 15. Can bounce back with manners.

1-10 Menangle 29Sep26 1609MS $10,000 NR up to 64 Fr9 Cooper Griffiths $19, won by 4.9m, 2nd Andretti 0, 1:52.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Been racing well and showed plenty of improvement following September 23 run. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 5 m (Fr9) at this track (1:52.00) beating Andretti in on September 29 at $19 at the bell was 4th-5.89. This race will be harder than that win. Draws wide so prefer others.

1-8 Goulburn 07Sep26 1710MS $9,790 NR up to 65 Fr2 Jai Meikle $3, won by 4.6m, 2nd Petes Crunch Time 0, 1:55.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last start posted a big 4.5 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Goulburn (2:02.20) beating Petes Crunch Time in on September 7 at $2.80 at the bell was leading 4. May overcome the awkward draw to feature again.

8-10 Menangle 03Oct26 2300MS $20,400 0W/20K Stakes 4U Fr6 Jim Douglass $71, btn 35.1m, wnr Forever Onthe Punt 0, 1:56.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hung out and raced roughly near the 400m before breaking stride and checking Mcwizard.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr6) over 2300m at this track, beaten 35 m by Forever Onthe Punt (2:46.10) in 4yo+ on October 3 at $71. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 10th (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Outside Fighter (1:51.10) on September 22 at $151. Unlikely to threaten in this tough assignment.

2-9 Menangle 30Sep26 1609SS Trial Fr5 Grant Ellul btn 3.2m, wnr WANTED POSTER 0.0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run 4th (Fr3) over 1609m after showing early speed at Newcastle, beaten 2 m by Mccrikey (1:55.10) on December 16 at $8.50. Tough draw for his return.
