Menangle Race 7 - Hyland Sportswear Pace
ALWAYSBGOOD (7) is a progressive gelding who came from one spot wider and worked but toughed out a win at this circuit and distance last week. Up in grade but has yet to miss a place so is reliable and looks capable of taking this next step. HAPPY TOO YA (6) faded out as favourite last start at Penrith but he was flying earlier in the campaign with four straight wins, one of them here. Back in grade so prepared to give him another chance. LUV THE NITELIFE (2) was runner-up here fresh then drew deep and raced wide when midfield last time. Gets her best draw since returning for a long stint on the sidelines and won her lone third-up attempt so could be ready to peak. BLAZING HIGH (1) is another that should strip fitter third-up and the ace draw could see him progress.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.75 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Alora at Globe Derby Park over 2230m on April 20 at $2.90. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second after a quick start, behind Maxo Mighty at this track over 1609m on June 9 at $31. Ticking along well and may feature again.
