Canberra Race 6 - Lerida Estate Winery Pace
TIGERNATOR (7) worked to find the lead and kept kicking only to find one better last time out over 1635m at Temora. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. ROYAL FOCUS (2) finished fifth last start over 1660m at Parkes, beaten 17 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago over 1770m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Primary contender if she is at her best. MOVINTOHELLANDBACK (3) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1635m at Temora last time out. Each-way. I LIKA STYLE (4) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 1635m at Temora last time out.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr5) over 1770m at this track, beaten 60 m by Shaken Sands (2:11.30) in NR up to 48 on February 9 at $26. Two runs back 10th (Fr6) over 1730m at Bathurst, beaten 80 m by The Attractor (2:04.50) in 2yo No NR on August 13 at $8. Capable of testing this line up.

Recent efforts haven't been up to her best. Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr4) over 1660m at Parkes beaten 17 m by Chillax (2:01.20) in NR 39 to 43 on February 27 at $12. The start before 5th (Fr1) over 1720m after showing early speed at Dubbo beaten 9 m by Hazza Is Watching (2:06.60) in NR 37 to 39 on February 20 at $10. Capable of a lot more.

Resuming after a spell of three-and-a-half months. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into seventh behind Business In Heaven at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in a 3yo LR No NR CG on December 5 at $81. Previous preparation first-up came from midfield and won by 2 m after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Riverina Paceway (2:07.30) beating Wamboyne Machete in 2yo NR up to 55 on October 4 2024 at $12. Has plenty of upside and can make a winning return.

Didn't do much last start, was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr6) over 1770m after racing wide at this track well beaten by Royal Focus (2:11.50) in NR up to 40 on February 9 at $17. Before that 7th (Sr4) over 1720m at Young beaten 24 m by Rockin Sweet (2:06.80) in NR up to 37 on February 3 at $14. This looks a far sterner task.
