Menangle Race 2 - Bestinbeds.com.au Pace
Looks an ideal race for SOHO CHARMER (3) to return in. He was last seen in the Gold Chalice series at Bathurst in March where he won a heat before a close fourth in the final. He was only 0.7m behind star colt Hollywood Strip there having earlier finished runner-up to him in the NSW Derby the last time he attempted this circuit and distance. Proven fresh and was readied with a trial win so looks tough to stop from a good draw. ENJABONARLO (9) draws wide but his form reads well, beaten only 3m by a good filly last week and winning two in a row prior, one of them here. ISLA ROCHELLE (8) came from this barrier to salute by 3.2m at this circuit and distance last week. Tackles the boys this time but should go well again now that she is back in winning form. PETES CRUNCH TIME (1) has been coming from wider draws but scored from this barrier here last month so looking for better.
