Geelong Race 5 - Golden Plains First National Real Estate Pace

SPORTY PHILTRA (9) is racing well having produced good efforts from this row in both outings since a win at Shepparton. Expect her to make an impact again. SWISS LIGHTNING (10) is in good form having placed in both outings since a win at Ararat, last time chasing along the sprint lane for third in a higher-graded race at Stawell. Draws on the back row but finds a winnable assignment. BREATHE EASY (11) is good enough to make an impact if things go his way from the second row. Last-start placegetter JACKIERABBIT (2) draws to play a role.

Two back was well beaten into eighth after being driven well back, behind Swiss Lightning at Ararat over 1790m in a NR up to 45 on April 6 at $11. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second behind The Democrat at Maryborough over 1690m in a NR up to 39 on April 14 at $12. Rates highly. Contender.

Didn't do much last time out, surrendered the lead and finished 8th (Fr1) over 2150m after showing early pace at Bendigo, at the bell was 3rd-3.8m on the pegs beaten 14 m by Tophut Johny (2:40.60) in NR up to 49 on April 23 at $5.50. Before that 8th (Sr2) over 2190m at Maryborough, beaten 35 m by Our True Colours (2:39.90) in NR 45 to 50 on April 14 at $151. Unlikely to threaten.
