Bathurst Race 5 - Good Luck Gold Crown Finalists Pace
DUFFY HOLLOW NZ (3) came from wider and finished second last start, beaten a head. That was his third placing from his last five outings here so the hoof is on the till. Could break through aided by a lower draw. REASON TO PARTY (2) was beaten only 6m in stronger company last start so will enjoy the class drop. Good when in the money at Parkes two runs ago. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Major player. SATELLITE SIMBA (1) is first up for nine months but was runner-up at the trials and gets the ace draw. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. TALK TO LEXY (6) should find this easier than recent attempts.
