Bathurst Race 8 - Thank You Gold Crown Sponsors Pace
STUDLEIGH FURY (10) displayed pleasing improvement to score by more than 11 metres at this circuit and distance five days ago. Draws on the second line this time but is race fit now and could strike again. CHARLOTTES DIAMOND (3) came from the back row for a debut fourth at this circuit and distance then finished third last start at Young. Has some upside and from a good draw can be right in the finish. BOOMER SHANNON (6) is a long-time maiden but continues to race well with a string of top-four finishes to his name and must be considered after he finished runner-up to STUDLEIGH FURY from a wider draw at this circuit and distance last week. STELLA MAY (2) gets a good draw so is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to come from the back line and finish third at Dubbo.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Furious Bart at this track over 1730m in a MAIDEN on March 11 at $3.30. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after showing early speed, behind Smooth Chakra at Young over 1720m in a 0-1 WIN on March 24 at $4. Draws well and is working up to a win.

Solid run when beaten by 2 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Furious Bart at this track over 1730m in a MAIDEN on March 11 at $2.90. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Studleigh Fury at this track over 1730m in a MAIDEN on March 27 at $34. Going along well. Can feature again.
