Young Race 9 - Hilltops Equine Centre Pace
ARMA THE GREAT (3) enjoys a class drop on the last attempt and was going well prior, winning two of his previous three outings. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run so could find his winning ways. MITTYS THREE ACES NZ (9) was down the track last start at Menangle but came from this barrier three back at Canberra so is expected to run well. CRIMSON ROCK NZ (5) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at Leeton. Draws wider but won the only time she raced here. Last-start placegetter SYNCOPATED SHUFFLE (2) should get every chance from a favourable draw.

Finished ninth at his last two starts since resuming from a spell. Last outing was beaten 20 metres behind Sweet Sweet Tooth at Bathurst over 1730m on July 8. Fitter and draws well so can do better.

Improved last start with a good run when 3rd (Sr1) over 1758m at Leeton was 5th-7.7 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Sophies Scooter (2:12.70) on July 7 at $19. Decent effort last start. Likely to be thereabouts.

Fair performance when beaten by 3.5 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind Bidgee Babe at Riverina Paceway over 1740m on June 30 at $12. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Girl Just Fly at Leeton over 1758m on July 7 at $2. Can be in the mix.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best.
