Tamworth Race 2 - Happy 65th Birthday Stephen Fairless Plate (C1)
SHAKESPEARE'S GIRL (11) brings the right form to the table third up with the winkers going on. Strong through the line with a tough second over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the corner. No excuses today. FAMAHAN (2) slow into stride from outside draw and never in contention when sixth over 1400m at Scone. Best figures measure up nicely and trained on the track. KRYSTINA KERIMA (6) six weeks between runs when he knocked up late to finish fourth over 1400m at Scone. Open to further improvement and should run the 1600m. Each way. OMINOUS (10) now in the David Hatch yard. Failed to handle the Pakenham Synthetic track at his last two outings. Keep safe in a fairly average race.

Last start eased back early on 6th of 9 in a Ctry Cl1 at Scone on September 1 over 1400m, slow going 6 len behind Street Force carrying 55.5kg at $11. The race before that 3rd of 13 in a Cl1 at Moree on August 6 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind Almost Maybe with 56kg at $15. Certainly worth another chance on the firmer track.

The race before that raced on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 9 in a Ctry Bm58 at Gunnedah on July 20 over 1400m, 7 len behind Meddlesome with 52kg at $26. Nice effort last time. Finds a nice race and should run the 1600m.

Second-up sat on the pace before fading to run last of 11 in a Mdn-Sw at Pakenham Synthetic on August 3 over 1600m, 27 len behind Gold Chariot with 59.5kg at $9. Can make amends after failing to handle the synthetic track.
