Parkes Race 5 - Vale Gwen Gardiner
MY ULTIMATE LUCIUS (3) ran fifth last start at Dubbo over 1720m, beaten 10 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. RIVERINA FLASH (4) finished third at this track two runs ago before finishing third at his latest appearance over 1660m at this track, beaten 6 metres. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. DESIDERIO (2) is right in the mix after finishing runner-up for the second time in a row last start, beaten 4.5 metres at Young. Ideally placed to go one better. IM HERE TO PARTY (6) is the next elect off a last-start win by 2 metres at Dubbo over 1720m.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following July 8 run. Last start won by 2.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Young (2:10.30) beating Didnt I in on July 14 at $18 at the bell was leading 1.8. This race will be harder than that win. Not keen.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 5th (Fr3) over 1720m after showing early pace at Dubbo was 3rd-3.6 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Rip Rock (2:10.90) on August 7 at $3.40. The run prior 8th (Sr4) over 1720m at Young, at the bell was 8th-12.7 beaten 9 m by Raging On (2:07.60) on August 4 at $10. Expecting a better run this time.

Solid performance when beaten by 2 m finishing third behind Tulhurst Elvis at this track over 1660m on July 24 at $8. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Tulhurst Elvis at this track over 1660m on July 31 at $7. Hard to beat.

Before that was driven from back in the field when 10th (Fr6) over 1660m at this track, beaten 14 m by Im Here To Party (2:04.80) on July 31 at $51. This looks tough.

Scored at his last two starts. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 2 m (Sr3) at Dubbo (2:07.60) beating Smooth Euro in on August 7 at $51 at the bell was 4th-8.2. Hard to leave out on current form. Top chance again.
