Young Race 1 - Donges IGA Pace
WATCH CARINAS LASS (7) added to her recent string of strong performances last start when runner-up at Wagga, beaten a head. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. If she gets the gaps she is going well enough to take this out. THE KING OFTHEROAD (9) scored at West Wyalong two runs ago before a solid effort at his latest appearance at Wagga, beaten 6.4 metres. If things go his way he can measure up. A LIL BIT OF LOVE (8) will find this easier than the last attempt at Menangle. Had recorded a series of wins or placings prior. Major player. IMPERMISSIBLE (4) raced parked and faded last week at Bathurst but was good when coming from the back row to score at this circuit and distance prior. Can atone returning to the front line.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.3 m third behind Impermissible at this track over 2100m last start. Before that was beaten 1.4 metres third at Canberra over 1770m same class on October 12. Good showing expected again.

Been racing well and showed plenty of improvement following September 29 run. Last start raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 2.25 m (Fr1) at this track (2:05.30) beating Ellens Delight in M on October 27 at $31 at the bell was 3rd-4.8. This race will be harder than that win. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind A Lil Bit Of Love at West Wyalong over 1740m on October 25 at $3.90. Then a handy effort when a close second after being driven well back, behind Im Dustee at Riverina Paceway over 1740m on November 3 at $6.50. Top contender.
