Pacman Hammer in winning by 25m untouched at Menangle yesterday has taken 5 secs off his best time. With a NR in the 50's he has run 1.50.7
The now 6yo has been in work for the last 6mths but had not won for his previous 22 starts (and had not had a stable change from MJ McCarthy)
Admittedly we went from racing at Bathurst to Menangle yesterday
Looking at his 3 previous starts is interesting:
10 days prior he appeared lose a heap of ground (out of pic) when he broke at the start and looked pretty good only being beat 11m (winners MR 1.57.6)
Before that was a shocker where he did not put in despite a soft 1x2 trip
His other December start he led and should have been able to win, so although 2nd it was pretty weak
Here is yesterday's win
