The Last Word – Gold Bracelet Night
Tomorrow night sees the running of the Group 3 Gold Bracelet for the two-year-old fillies at Gloucester Park. Just For Love, above, won the race last year. Get the last word from the key contenders below.
RACE 1 – PACING FOR PINK WA PACE
- Lindsay Harper (POCKET THE CASH): “He’s racing well. This is a good field. I think he’s got enough speed to hold. If he leads he’s a great each-way chance.”
- Kim Prentice (SHANWAY): “He has settled in pretty well and from a good draw he should go very well.”
- Deni Roberts (HENWOOD BAY): “Have to assess this one off the arm. Should lob close enough to suit. Place chance.”
- (BETTOR BE OSCAR): “
- Brett Smith (BURNING RUBBER): “Looks a tough assignment for him.”
- Aldo Cortopassi (SECRET OPERATION): “Will take shortcuts.”
- Gary Hall Snr (GAMBIT): “He lost form over there. Not 100 per cent where he’s at. He’s a bit of a handful to drive. Don’t think he can breeze. He has to be a winning chance on best form.”
- Shannon Suvaljko (PLUTONIUM): “Nice horse who has a shocking draw. Will run on.”
RACE 2 – SUPPORT THE MCGRATH FOUNDATION PACE
- Nathan Turvey (MINI MINE YET): “Last run was a sign of better things to come. Working well.”
- (DISCO UNDER FIRE): “
- Ryan Bell (REBEL WITH A GRIN): “Held up last three runs and just needs luck. Hopefully tonight is the night.”
- Madeleine Young (BLOCKJORG): “Should get a good run and will run well.”
- (WARRIORS LEGACY): SCRATCHED
- Donald Harper (JESSE ALLWOOD): “Drawn wide for him. Wil go back.”
- (IM ROCKNROLL MAGIC): SCRATCHED
- Jocelyn Young (PIERRE WHITBY): “Will run his usual honest race.”
- Ashleigh Markham (BUDD SIDEWINDER): “Tricky draw. Is going well and just needs some luck.”
- David Young (BAYLAN JETT): “Is probably three runs short of the form horse you saw last time in.”
RACE 3 – DONATE NOW TO PACING FOR PINK PACE
- David Thompson (ROCKNROLL WHITBY): “Hopefully we come out well and sit on the favourite. Hope to get a tow into it and run a place.”
- Kyle Harper (AL GUERRERO): “If he leads he will be hard to beat.”
- Michael Brennan (VALBONNE): “Look to slide across to the running line. Was good last week. Place chance.”

- (SPACE JUNK): “
- (OUR VIRTUOSO): “
- Nathan Turvey (BLUE BLAZER): “Working really well.”
- Gary Hall Snr (WILL I ROCKNROLL): “Was really happy with him last week. Hard to see him winning again. Will go back and see what happens. Needs the pace on.”
- Shannon Suvaljko (BRACKEN SKY): “Unlucky last start. Another shocking draw but will run on.”
- Chris Lewis (POWERPLAY): “He should go well. He should get a nice run. If he gets a chance will be in the money.”
- (BETTOR COPAGOODONE): “
RACE 4 – #PACINGFORPINK PACE
- Robert MacDonald (ARGYLE RED): “Good draw. May still need the run being second-up.”
- Kyle Harper (CHIAROSCURO): “Racing super. Each-way.”
- Greg Bond (PATRONUS STAR): “Should be right in the finish.”
- Ross Olivieri (PERFECT MAJOR): “Heading the right way. Still a couple of runs off his best. He needed racing week to week. We have to go forward.”
- Gary Hall Snr (WHOZIDEAWASTHIS): “He’s probably making up the numbers. He needs to lead.”
- Ross Olivieri (MAJOR TIMES): “We will be sitting with him.”
- Greg Bond (VAMPIRO): “Not without a chance first-up.”
RACE 5 – 2YO FILLIES GOLD BRACELET
- Sarah Wall (MAKE YOUR MARK): “On the improve and will be looking to hold the lead again.”
- Chris Lewis (DANCE STEPS): “She’s drawn okay. Needs to step up. It’s a hard race.”
- (CHAMPAGNE EVERYONE): “
- Shannon Suvaljko (MOTOR ON LILLY): “Improving filly who will benefit from running in these races.”
- Shane Young (WONDERFUL TO FLY): “Worst case scenario she will be outside Make Your Mark. She can sit in the breeze and do it.”
- Ross Olivieri (TAKING THE MIKI): “We could’ve beaten Wonderful To Fly last start if Shane hadn’t rated her so well. She got home well. I wouldn’t concede she can’t win. It’s hard.”
- (BONSTAR): SCRATCHED
- Donald Harper (SEE THE WORLD): “She’s drawn badly. Not going up to her best. Needed to draw. Looks hard.”
- Aldo Cortopassi (FOLLOW THE ARK): “Will take shortcuts.”
- Emily Suvaljko (SHEZA MIKIMOTO): “Good barrier. Hopefully we don’t get too far back.”
- Sarah Wall (DONTBESILLYCHILLI): “If she can get a bit of luck in running, she won’t be far away.”
RACE 6 – COMMUNITY TAB SUPPORTING PACING FOR PINK PACE
- Ashleigh Markham (DREDLOCK ROCKSTAR): “All guns blazing early. Will be a winning chance either way.”
- Ross Olivieri (JIMMY MACK): “He’s getting old. I think he needs a spell. He’s struggling for form. He is a good leader.”
- Emily Suvaljko (BLACK JACK ZAC): “Looking to bounce back to his best form. Has got a good turn of foot.”
- Lindsay Harper (THEREUGO): “Hopefully we cross. The one and two have speed. Would’ve preferred to have drawn wider in six. We will have a crack. If he finds the front he’s each-way.”
- Michael Grantham (TIFFANY ROSE): “Fair bit of speed inside us. She went well last week. With a nice drop in she can be dangerous over them late.”
- Matt Scott (C C CHEVRON): “Tough draw.”
- Deb Padberg (LA SULIEMAN): “Needs the run from the wide barrier.”
- Shannon Suvaljko (DEEORSE): “Racing really well. Could win without surprising.”
- David Thompson (MACHS GOLD): “Hope he gets a good run and he will be finishing off.”
- Donald Harper (ALLWOODS ROCKNROLL): “The last time he drew 10 he ran second. Sort of draw he needs. Think he can run a place.”

RACE 7 – FOLLOW PACING FOR PINK WA ON INSTAGRAM PACE
- Matt Scott (PERLEE GATES): “Racing well at the moment. Loves the distance and can earn.”
- Kyle Harper (MANOFTHEPEOPLE): “If he steps he can earn from there. Place chance.”
- Aldo Cortopassi (HIT THE SKY): “Will try to find the rail ASAP.”
- Shannon Suvaljko (MAJOR ARTIST): “Won this kind of race last time in the stand. Has a really good horse off 30m here so will roll along and make it hard for him.”
- (BETTOR PACK IT): “
- David Young (FLYING MISTER IDEAL): “He’s the best horse I’ve got but he’s bumped into a good horse in Minstrel. He’s had more things go wrong than the Titanic so he will probably need a run or two. He’s probably a 30m better horse now than when he last trialled.”
- (TRIROYALE BRIGADE): “
- Emily Suvaljko (THE BLACK CARDINAL): “Horse is racing well. His best asset is his point-to-point speed.”
- Deb Padberg (BAD ROUND): “First-up but will be on the fence.”
- Greg Bond (MINSTREL): “Should give this a big shake despite the 30m handicap.”
RACE 8 – THANK YOU MCGRATH FOUNDATION BREAST CARE NURSES PACE

- Emily Suvaljko (TRIPLE BRIE): “Racing well but there’s a few quality mares in this race.”
- Michael Brennan (MISS LIMELIGHT): “Should lead and will leave it up to ‘Bart’ from there.”
- Shannon Suvaljko (BLISSFULLABBEY): “Nice mare who can run a place here.”
- Ryan Bell (RADIANT AMBER): “Preferred race fell over. Awkward draw again and needs luck again.”
- Colin Brown (FIFTY FIVE REBORN): “Is at her best. Winning chance.”
- Ross Olivieri (QUEEN SHENANDOAH): “She’s flying. She needs the right run. I expect her to run one, two or three.

RACE 9 – SUPPORT BREAST CANCER AWARENESS WITH PACING FOR PINK
- Donald Harper (OUR STAR BILLING): “She’s going really well. Got draw. If she holds and can get away with it, we are a hope. Depends on the run she gets. Each-way.”
- (SHELLNA): “
- Shannon Suvaljko (PATRIKIAR): “Racing well but it’s a tricky draw. Follow her in something easier.”
- Colin Brown (JOELENE): “Forget the last two runs. Can run top three.”
- Emily Suvaljko (CAPTAINS BEACHBABE): “Nice filly but it’s an awkward draw.”

RACE 10 – BE BREAST AWARE – CHECK YOURSELF PACE
- Shannon Suvaljko (VESPA): “Great draw to run a big race in this.”
- (IM BETA THAN GOUDA): “
- Gary Hall Snr (ALTA BLUES): “He will work forward. He sat outside Pocket The Cash and beat him. If he led, he’d be unbeatable.”
- Emily Suvaljko (JASPERVELLABEACH): “Doesn’t look to be any speed in the race so we will need a bit of luck from the draw.”
- Chris Lewis (CORDERO): “If there’s good speed early it will help him. Some chance of running into the money. Classier field this week and it will be tough from draw.”
- Deni Roberts (EUPHORIC MOMENT): “Tough here. Really happy with the way he finished off last start. Will be hitting the line strongly and the 2500 should help.”
- Gary Hall Snr (NOTA BENE DENARIO): “He surprised me last week. A few might go to the pegs here so he may go forward. Will leave it to Callan.”
