Goulburn Race 8 - Goulburn Soldiers Club Pace
KAIRAKI DELIGHT NZ (2) has been racing well so far this time in. Led at his most recent outing and finished second at Penrith over 1720m, beaten a nose. Race fit now and a nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope in a similar race. CINEMATIC (3) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at Riverina Paceway over 1740m. Genuine threat. AUNTIE LOU (5) could only finish sixth over 2260m at Bathurst most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix. SLYX NZ (1) should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position so is worth including.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow second behind Last Time Joe at Penrith over 1720m last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres fourth at Newcastle over 1609m same class on October 2. Peaking now and will be hard to stop.

Two back was well beaten into fifth after being driven well back, behind Our Rebel Yell at Riverina Paceway over 1740m on September 25 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Kia Ora Beauty at Riverina Paceway over 1740m on October 4 at $4.80. One of the primary contenders.

Before that, 7th (Fr5) over 1730m after showing early speed at Bathurst, at the bell was leading 2.5 beaten 5 m by Gleneagle Ruler (2:04.70) on October 9 at $3. Can improve and has to be included among the main chances.
