Newcastle Race 3 - Rippit Golf 2yo Pace
TINY PRANCER (6) has not raced for three-and-a-half months but looks forward enough for the return after three nice city trials, winning the latest. Showed ability in a short maiden prep, highlighted by a Menangle win over this distance. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. BETTOR ELEMENTS (5) has been racing well, placing at his last three starts including a third from the back row most recently at Penrith. Beaten 2.4m into second from this barrier here prior. Looks close to a win. REVVIN REYNARD (8) cops a wide barrier but placed from there two back and was good again when beaten less than 2m into second here last week. WATTS UP WOODY (2) draws much better than last time and has claims off a win at this circuit and distance three back.

Last start 8th (Sr3) over 1720m at Penrith, beaten 22 m by Somelikeithot (2:05.60) in 2yo on October 29 at $14. Before that, 4th (Fr1) over 1609m after showing early speed at this track, beaten 4.5 m by Changes (1:55.50) in 2yo on October 23 at $8. Closer draw this time so worth another chance.

Last start 9th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 19 m by Changes (1:55.50) in 2yo on October 23 at $26. Two runs back won by a head when quickly away, (Fr4) at Redcliffe (2:17.80) beating What Is His Name in 2yo on September 30 at $8.50 at the bell was leading 2.2. Prefer others on this occasion.

Last start was well back in the run when 9th (Fr5) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 8th-9.6 beaten 13 m by Warrawee Way Back (1:53.40) in 2yo on October 27 at $26. Before that, was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr8) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 55 m by Don Hunter (1:50.80) in 2yo on October 17 at $151. Better than the last run and is an exotic chance.

Solid run when beaten by 2.75 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Changes at this track over 1609m in a 2yo on October 23 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Paiges Boulder at this track over 1609m in a 2yo on October 30 at $3.80. Rates highly. Can give a good account.
