Newcastle Race 3 - Pfd Food Service 2yo Mdn Pace

START CHEERING NZ (3) settled in the leading division and closed well to finish second last start over 1720m at Penrith. Has now been in the money three times from as many runs this prep. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and she can find winning ways. COOLABAH BILL (5) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 19 metres. Expected to run well. GATTUSO (10) is a two-year-old colt from the Rickie Alchin stable on debut. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row. Showed some ability when a minor placegetter in a recent trial. Sure to prove tough to beat. NIGHT WITCH (9) broke in the run and 99th, beaten, first-up last time out over 1609m at this track. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. Live chance in a similar assignment.

Solid run when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Maverick at this track over 1609m in a 2yo on September 14 at $3.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Dancinwithpleasure at Penrith over 1720m in a 2yo on October 1 at $6. Leading chance again.

Last start was well beaten into fifth after being driven well back, after a quick start, behind Disturbance at this track over 1609m in a 2yo on September 25 at $9.50. Raced better the start before that with a good run when 3rd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th-12.98 beaten 6 m by Pretty Privilege (1:56.50) in 2yo on September 14 at $3.70. Looks very hard to beat.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Superior Art at Tamworth over 1609m on September 24 at $1.55. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind Benjiromar at Tamworth over 1609m on October 1 at $2.40. Rates highly and likely to be prominent again.

Freshened-up since the last run 42 days ago. Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow behind Ideally Midnight at this track over 1609m 2yo last start. Before that was beaten 5 metres third at Menangle same class on May 12. Looks ideally placed.
