Hamilton Race 4 - Matthews Petroleum Pace

EYENEEDTHAT (2) finished fifth last start at Listed level in a race won by Brooklyn Dan over 1720m at Melton, beaten 7 metres after he led early and then raced in behind the leader at the turn. Drawn well so a win is on the cards. THE STEEL DRAGON (6) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last seven starts, most recently recording a second of 10 over 1710m at Ballarat. Primary contender in a similar race. WILD BULL NZ (7) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1710m at Ballarat. EASTBRO KOZZY (1) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 2180m at Terang on February 13 after racing in behind the leader at the bell.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Hittheroadjack at Ballarat over 2200m in a NR 56 to 64 on February 5 at $1.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Tara Victory at Ballarat over 1710m in a NR 56 to 64 on February 19 at $4.60. Big chance again.
