Bathurst Race 2 - Barkers Butchery Meat Raffle 3Yo Pace
SOHO PIASTRI (5) has been very good in two Menangle outings off a spell, finishing second when fresh then leading and fighting well to get home by a nose last week. Draws wider but he is race fit and in form. NOCTURNAL (10) has had nearly eight weeks off since tackling the NSW Derby but was kept ticking over with a trial. If he performs up to his second in a Derby heat from two back at Menangle he'll measure right up in this line-up. OSHLEY (4) will be fitter for a resuming second from the back row at Goulburn and Cam Hart sticks. SOHO WASHINGTON (3) has been working towards a win for a while and draws for another good showing.

Resuming after a spell of eight months. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into fifth behind One More Reason at Menangle over 1609m in a 2yo G2 No NR F on September 6 at $9.50. Races well fresh but would want to see a betting push in this line-up.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow second behind Devious Minds at Penrith over 1720m 3yo NMT1W/TS last start. Before that was beaten 2.75 metres fourth at this track over 1730m in 3yo No NR CG on March 28. Draws well and can be thereabouts again.

Having her second run back from a spell. Game effort when 2nd (Sr1) over 1710m at Goulburn was 6th-14.2 at the bell, beaten 4 m by Papi Rocks (2:) in 3yo NR up to 58 on April 27 at $6. Fitter and can make an impact.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by a nose as favourite when quickly away, (Fr1) at Menangle (1:52.70) beating You Are My Wish in 3yo NMT1W/TS on April 28 at $1.90 at the bell was leading 1.43. In form and has strong claims again.

Continued his steady form from last campaign first-up. Returned to racing with a good run when 3rd (Sr2) over 1730m at this track, at the bell was 6th-10.01 beaten 3.5 m by Aurora Mighty Rob (2:02.70) in 3yo NMT1W/TS on April 15 at $10. Won last start in his previous preparation at Parkes over 1660m NR up to 50. Fitter and can find the frame again.

Scored at his last two starts. Last start ran on from midfield and won by a head (Sr1) at this track (2:02.70) beating Berocca Bernie in 3yo NMT1W/TS on April 15 at $12 at the bell was 3rd-4.65. Going well but cops a wide barrier.

Last start 8th (Fr3) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 8th-13.04 beaten 14 m by Hollywood Strip (1:49.80) in 3yo G1 No NR on March 14 at $51. Before that, a solid effort when 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at Menangle was 4th-7.2 at the bell, beaten 2 m by Showmethetanlines (1:51.70) in 3yo No NR on March 7 at $34. Big class drop and is capable of playing a major role.
