Tiger Tara following a win at Penrith and now his progeny are hoping to do the same.

Three-year-old pacer King Tiger’s unbeaten streak came to an end last week. 

However the colt is ready to pounce back into the winners’ circle at Penrith on Thursday having drawn barrier one in race four. 

The Kevin Pizzuto-trained juvenile has had one start at Penrith where he was successful in a slick rate of 1:55.7.

King Tiger won his first four starts before finishing third at Bankstown on August 8. 

He is by Pizzuto’s Inter Dominion winning stallion Tiger Tara who has another two pacers debuting tonight. 

They are two-year-olds Tiger Jones and Sheza Tigeress that Pizzuto both trains. 

As a stallion Tiger Tara has had four starters for two winners.

Penrith best bet

Ex Kiwi youngster who will prove hard to toss first up for the new yard after a stylish Menangle trial.
