Verdict
THE PARGEY BEE (NAP) showed nothing in Turf maidens at huge prices but attracted strong support on his all-weather and handicap debut and ran a fine race to get close to Kisses On Fire, who was receiving 5lb, with Clarinbridge, Dubirango and Decorated Guest behind. John McConnell's colt has obviously improved dramatically and can recoup losses. Urban Oasis ran a bit better than his finishing position suggests last time and makes his handicap debut as does Susan's Pass after the regulation three maiden starts.
