Bathurst Race 5 - Thank You Bathurst Plumbing And Gas Pace
OUR GOAT (10) makes his first appearance since winning both a semi-final and the Group 3 final of the Breeders Challenge 4EG series at Menangle last October. Has been readied with a trial and is proven fresh so could make a winning return. SHEZ SWEET LOUISE NZ (5) had put together a long sequence of minor placings before a well-deserved win at her latest appearance, scoring by 8 metres in the Blayney Cup. Her record at this circuit and distance stands at three wins and two placings from six attempts. Big chance make it two on end. FASHION ICON (8) draws wide but has been tackling stronger company than this and is another with a strong record both here and at the distance. SMOOTH BUZZ (9) must be respected after coming from this row to find winning form here last week and he draws for a nice trail.
