Tamworth Race 5

Mates4harness Ladyship Pace

Stake: $7,630

HEAVENLY SONG (4) was far from disgraced when midfield at Menangle last time. Was racing well prior, recording back-to-back placings at this circuit to follow a Newcastle win. Has the ability to take this out. SHIRALEE (5) has finished second in two of her last three starts at this venue, last time coming from a similar barrier to be beaten a neck. In form and rates as a major player. SAFE JEWELS (3) draws well and is close to a win after two successive placings at this venue, last time coming from the back row. Chance to break through. KATASTROPHEE (8) showed good improvement in a second-up win last week and could go on with it.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Slingshot at Newcastle over 1609m in a NR up to 45 on March 21 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Be Good Benny at this track over 1980m in a NR up to 47 on March 27 at $11. Expected to go well from a low draw.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fifth behind Smolenski at this track over 1609m in a 4yo+ NR up to 50 on March 20 at $12. Then a handy effort when a close second after being driven well back, behind Longnwindingroad at this track over 1980m in a NR up to 47 on March 27 at $5. Should be in the mix again.
