Penrith Race 3 - Family Race Day @ Penrith Paceway June 9 Pace
TAKE THE DEAL NZ (9) resumes from a spell of six-and-a-half months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid third over 2600m at Addington. May just need a bit of luck at some point from this difficult draw. Expecting a bright start to the campaign and new stable. NOTSOKOOL (5) ran second last start at Newcastle over 1609m, beaten 10 metres. Expect him to be prominent. EPIC ERNIE (1) is worth another chance after a last-start ninth over 1609m at Menangle two-and-a-half weeks ago. OBADIAH DRAGON NZ (3) should be at his peak at the fourth run back from a spell, the latest outing a third at this track a week ago.
