Once ranked as one of the top drivers in Sydney during the Harold Park days, Peter Jnr Green now spends most of his time training thoroughbreds. 

After stepping away from the driving scene for more than 15 years, Green worked as a racing steward and made a driving comeback in the 2018/19 season. 

The 43-year-old has had close to 100 drives since and is yet to land a winner. 

Green has only had 10 drives this year and heads to Penrith tonight to drive the Malcolm Smith-trained Rogervalerio Lombo in race one.

Green has had eight drives on the pacer for three placings.

The iForm best bets for Thursday:

Penrith best bet 

Race 3: Itz Georgiaonmymind (6)

Handy Menangle trial and could have their measure first up for McCarthy Lodge.

Penrith next best 

Race 7: My Two Eves (8)

Should regard highly following a useful performance when resuming.

Play the exotics 

The Penrith quaddie

Race 5: 3-5-2

Race 6: 3-10-4

Race 7: 8-7-10-1

Race 8: 8-4-5
