Tamworth Race 3 - The Pub - Drive Of The Day Pace
SIGNIFICANT LAZ (2) hasn't been far from the placings at Newcastle of late, last time coming from the back row for fifth in a higher-graded race. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position and this looks a winnable assignment. ZACHAROONI (7) rises in grade but is hard to knock off back-to-back wins, one here and the other at Newcastle. Drawn to enjoy a nice run and is he gets the gaps could take this next step. LACHIES IDEAL (3) has been coming from the back line of late but should enjoy the return to the front row having come from there to win at this circuit and distance last month. THUNDAMENTAL (9) is worth thought after his last-start fourth at Newcastle and back-to-back placings here prior including a second from this barrier.

Seven-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Newcastle and this track both over 1609m. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 8 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Newcastle (1:54.20) beating Go Tess Go in on September 14 at $4 at the bell was 3rd-9.44. Goes to the second row but winning form is hard to knock.
