Illawarra Grange Race 6 - Plumbing The Gong (Bm64)
POWERFUL PRAYER (6) win record hardly excites and gets the blinkers added for the first time. Jumped in trip with a fighting sixth over 2300m at Newcastle after stalking the speed. Comes here in peak condition and makes plenty of appeal over this trip. Go close. CAN'T RECALL ONE (1) bounced off his good run two back, with a fast-finishing win as fav over 2100m at Tuncurry in a Bm66. Has further upside and should settle closer in the run. SONIC BENDER (2) third up for this and ran a much better race with a plugging third over 1850m at Newcastle in C1 class. J Mac takes the reins and his best form is over this trip. Top four contender. SUPER SUGOI (5) gets a better set-up for this after he motored late from last on the turn to finish sixth in a C2 at Tuncurry over 1600m. Can stalk the pace and finish in the minor money.

Third-up today. Resuming ran last of 10 in a Cl1 at Kembla Grange on August 29 over 1400m, 8 len behind Harry Lime with 59kg at $51. Second-up made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 11 in a Cl1-Sw at Newcastle on September 18 over 1850m, 4 len behind Think Itz You carrying 57.5kg at $6.50. Fitter now as he gets out to his right trip.

Last start from last on the turn 6th of 10 in a Cl2 at Tuncurry on September 11 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Erina with 58kg at $7.50. Before that 2nd of 7 in a Bm66 at Scone on September 1 over 1600m, slow going 1.5 len behind King Jerry carrying 59kg at $15. Has been racing well. Should be right about the mark again from the inside draw.
