Bathurst Race 7 - Nutrien Standardbreds Pace
MIGHT AND VICTORY (9) showed talent in landing a Newcastle win in just his second outing before he was checked and broke when well in the market last start. Draws for a trail and has upside so deserves another chance. GRACE SHANNON (10) has trialled since she led and faded last start and had finished top-two in her other three starts here including a maiden win. Draws on the back row but is a player if she gets the gaps. A TRUE LOVE (7) draws out but did a good job when just over 5m away in a higher-graded race last week. LEXYS ON SONG (5) has been readied with two trial wins so looking for a good return.

Resumes. At the latest first-up run was driven from back in the field when 10th (Fr5) over 1730m at this track beaten 60 m by Buddy Brilliance (2:05.30) in No NR on March 6 2024 at $81. Has been in work for a little while but after a lengthy break may need the run.
