Junee Race 2 - Junee Prime Lamb Pace
RACING WRITER (1) continued his good form when he raced parked from a wider barrier but stuck on for fourth last start at Temora. Had been runner-up in his previous two outings, beaten just a neck at this circuit and distance two back. Likely to get the favours from the ace draw so could break through. MAGIC MATTEO (4) has joined the Mat Rue stable since he last raced three-and-a-half months ago. Looks forward enough for the return after a minor placing in a recent trial. Could make an immediate impact. ULTIMATE EGO (5) has to come into calculations on the back of some consistent form, adding to a series of top-four finishes when off the back line most recently at Leeton. BIDGEE BABE (7) draws for a trail and came from this row when she scored two back at Temora.

Last start was well beaten into fourth after showing early speed, behind Pad Thai at Temora over 1635m in a NR 43 to 48 on March 3 at $5.50. Performed better the start before with a game effort when 2nd (Fr3) over 1760m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was leading 3.4 beaten a neck by French Street (2:09.80) in NR up to 50 on February 24 at $18. Should get his chance from the inside draw.

Rates well on best form and worth including.
