Parkes Race 2 - Parkes Leagues Club Pace
MY ULTIMATE BRUNO (9) settled in the leading division then assumed control and dug deep to score in a 1720m race at Dubbo last start, arriving 3.5 metres ahead of his rivals to make it two wins from his past four outings. Hard to know where he gets from this slightly awkward draw. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. MARABELLE (4) settled well back last time out with a sustained effort and scored by 2 metres in a far better performance at Bathurst over 2260m. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. MONDO GLITZ (2) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at Bathurst over 1730m. Hard to find fault. MOTHER WAS A MUDDA (7) is in the mix at his first run since finishing fourth over 2040m at this track six-and-a-half months ago.

Last start 5th (Sr2) over 1720m at Young was 6th-11.8 at the bell, beaten 15 m by Marinna Monsoon (2:07.40) on July 14 at $23. At the run before 5th (Sr2) over 1730m at Bathurst, at the bell was 7th-12.57 beaten 14 m by Sweet Sweet Tooth (2:06.60) on July 8 at $101. Assisted by the inside draw and he is a strong winning chance.
