Tamworth Race 2 - Tamworth Treated Timbers Pace
CEEJAY HAICH (1) has been competitive of late including a neck second at Newcastle two back. Kept the ball rolling last time when she came from much wider and finished 6 metres from the winner in fourth. Should get every chance from the ace draw. NASHVILLE BART (4) has had six weeks off and has changed yards since he was well fancied but faded out of it at Penrith. Can measure up to these with his A-game. BLACKMIRRA (7) didn't do a bad job when fourth at Newcastle last time out after missing by a nose at this circuit and distance. Draws for a trail and could be dangerous if she gets the gaps. JIMMY STEEL NZ (2) draws well and is open to improvement second up.

Should get every chance from the ace draw.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start tired badly to finish 10th (Fr1) over 1720m after showing early pace at Penrith well beaten by Rainbowsend (2:05.70) on June 11 at $3.90. The run before 8th (Fr6) over 1609m after showing early speed and racing wide at Newcastle beaten 45 m by Jilliby Amigo (1:55.20) on April 17 at $51. In a new yard and looks well placed.
