The Lane camp will supply two runners to Narromine on Saturday, October 21 with heavy eight conditions currently forecast.
R4
BARNSONS ENGINEERING CLASS 1 & MAIDEN PLATE
1600m
Class: Class 1, Set Weights

4 year old chestnut gelding (18-11-2013) Sire: Reward for Effort Dam: Star City Light (USA) (Risen Star (USA)) View Pedigree Report
Breeder: Mega Video Pty Ltd
Owners: Roseglen Racing (Mgr: R F Smith)
Colours: Blue And White Quarters, Blue Sleeves, Red Cap
The first of the stable runners will enter in race 4 with Neon Jungle to run in a class one combined maiden plate over a mile to be ridden by Chris Williams jumping from barrier (4).
Last time out he finished seven of seven over a mile, a week ago at Wyong in a class 2.
He is racing out of sorts in better company and will appreciate the drop in grade.
Last time he raced at this venue he placed 2nd of 14, he has to contend with 5kg more in this, and his early speed should put him in contention from a positive draw.
R5
AGRIGRAIN BENCHMARK 53 HANDICAP
1600m
Class: BM53, Handicap
6 ORLANDO JACK (Blks)
6 year old bay gelding (3-10-2011) Sire: Bernardini (USA) Dam: Pirate Rose (Al Hareb (USA)) View Pedigree Report
Breeder: Mr J Hirsch
Owners: E Hirsch
Colours: Gold, Black Motif, Collar And Sleeves, Gold And Black Motif Cap
Stablemate Orlando Jack will head out in a BM53 handicap in race five on the card to be partnered by Kody Nestor jumping from barrier 12.
Last time out the six-year-old gelding finished seventh of 11, four weeks ago at Cessnock in a BM55/1570m he has the speed to overcome an unfavourable draw and looks the genuine front-runner here.
He has successfully won on three occasions from 12 starts at this distance.
Best of luck to all connected at Narromine on Saturday.
