Geelong Race 3 - Hoyts Food Pace
SOLS ME NAME (3) is a lightly-raced but progressive colt who kicked off his campaign with back-to-back wins before finishing only 3.4m behind a Group performer when fourth at Melton last week. This looks easier and he should get his chance from this draw. LAMBRO MACH (6) did a fair job to be beaten just over 5m in a higher-graded race at Bendigo last week. Draws wide but has won at this circuit and distance before and his best form measures up. OLLIES THE BOSS (7) was first up for close to six months when he came from a similar draw to miss by just a neck as runner-up at Bendigo last week. Has won second-up before so can progress. MORRIS BROWN (2) has been producing some decent efforts from tough barriers of late including a second the last time he raced here last month. Draws for a good showing.

Capable of better than what we have seen in two runs this prep. Two starts back was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr4) over 2200m at Horsham was 4th-7 at the bell, beaten 3.5 m by One Golden Deal (2:42.50) on May 25 at $21. Prepared to overlook until his racing manners improve.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr3) over 1650m after showing early speed at Bendigo was 8th-10.27 at the bell, beaten 5 m by To The Nines (1:57.30) on June 10 at $7.50. The run before was well back in the run when 5th (Fr5) over 2240m at Melton beaten 17 m by Most Exciting (2:42.10) on May 23 at $9. Finds a suitable race this time.

Second-up here following a spell. Game effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr6) over 2150m at Bendigo was 6th-6.26 at the bell, beaten a neck by Angels Watching (2:34.50) on June 10 at $16. Draws wide but fitter so expected to go very well.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Seaside Boy at Melton over 2240m on May 30 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Highlandhartbreaka at Warragul over 2210m on June 8 at $4.50. Likely to play a role.
