Geelong Race 3 - Apco We Got You Nmw Pace
SILVER PISTOL (3) showed plenty of talent when overcoming a second row draw for a resuming win at Ballarat last start. Building a handy record and should be improved second-up so looks tough to stop from a more favourable draw. SNOW HUNTER (6) is racing well having placed in four of five starts since a Terang win, finishing third last start at Melton. Draws wider but can be in the finish again. ROCCO AMERICANO (5) is on the radar after he raced parked but stuck on to be beaten only 2.7m last start. EL BOSTON (10) came from a similar draw for a well-deserved win last week on the back of a string of seconds.
