Wentworth Park Race 9 - Where Else But Wenty?
TENACIOUS TALKER (2) boasts a strong record this journey with eight wins and five minors from 18 tries. In the money last time at Richmond (29.65) in a NG, finishing a neck second. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. RITZA TEARS (7) goes very well this course and distance starting 12 times for six wins and three minors. Below best last time at this track (30.35) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length fifth. Looks one of the chances. ASCEND FERN (1) is worth forgiving for his last effort when fourth (29.97) at Richmond over 520m. Has a good record at this journey. The form out of his last race has been franked. A big run wouldn't surprise. RITZA OLD MATE (6) is a last-start placegetter as favourite - should be thereabouts.

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd over 515m at Bulli beaten 6 lengths (29.46) behind Rugged Ethics in a Grade 4/5 on March 3. Can't recommend her in this.

Good effort to win last start by 5.5 lengths over 400m at Maitland in a handy (22.20), beating Naughty Zesta. Will find this a bit tougher, prefer in something easier.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 520m at this track. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Missed the frame latest (30.35) when fifth over 520m at this track in a Grade 5. Placed at all two starts from this draw. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
