Illawarra Grange Race 3 - Brookvale Union Midway (Bm64)
KING NIC (1) is a distance specialist trained locally. Sat midfield in a slowly run contest with a plugging fourth over 1500m at Kembla Grange. No excuses today and gets the right run from the low gate. THE NEW SINATRA (5) bounced off his unlucky sixth two-back, with a well-deserved victory over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Should handle the rise in weight and trip and play a leading role. TEQUISODA (4) progressive type gelded over the break. Came to the end of his prep when hard in the market for a dismal ninth over 1600m at Randwick in BM72 class last December. Fitted with the two trials and the booking of Tommy Berry is a good guide to his chances. LAWLESS LUCY (6) dropped in grade at her third race start with a fighting win from the outside gate over 1400m at Newcastle. Schofield sticks from the better gate and she looks up to this.
