Bathurst Race 9 - Yabby Dam Farms Own The Thrill Pace
THE DOME (10) went back last start then worked home in good style to score by a nose at this track over 1730m, a deserved win following his recent run of solid form. That latest effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. MIA ON (7) was 8 metres away in third at this track over 1730m last start at her first run back from a spell. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Won't find this any harder and she can take it to the next level. LIVE VANCE (4) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1730m at this track last time out. BELLE OF BELMONT NZ (9) is worth some thought based on her second over 1740m at Riverina Paceway two runs ago.

Resumes today. At the latest first-up run 5th (Fr2) over 1700m after showing early pace at Cowra beaten 11 m by Playboi Roy (2:06.90) on September 14 at $11. Likely to need the run after a lengthy break.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by a nose as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at this track (2:06.50) beating Surfin At Midnight in on July 17 at $2.20 at the bell was 5th-6.3. Looks hard to beat again.
