Kilmore Race 7 - Picklebet 'Get Your Pickle On' Trot
MONEY TALKS (4) placed for the fourth time in his last five starts when he came from one spot wider for third at the latest appearance at Bendigo. Could break through in what looks a suitable assignment. JOE LOU (6) broke two back before a solid showing for fifth at Ballarat last time. Could measure up in a race like this with his A-game. PLAYA DEL CARMEN (1) gets the ace draw and is looming as a real threat after a good effort last start, finishing third at Maryborough. BET BET HOTSHOT (2) is in the mix after placing in his last three outings, all from wider draws than this.

Good run when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Always Skye High at Bendigo over 2150m on June 24 at $8. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.75 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Lavengers Boy at Maryborough over 2190m on June 29 at $3.20. Rates highly. Could break through from a low draw.

Good run when beaten by 5.5 m finishing fifth after being driven well back, behind Always Skye High at Bendigo over 2150m on June 24 at $3. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Solotrekk at Bendigo over 1650m on July 1 at $19. Continues to race well and has winning claims.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr4) over 1710m at Ballarat was 6th-14.94 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Robert John (2:09.40) on June 11 at $7. The run previous 9th (Fr4) over 1650m after showing early speed at Bendigo beaten 50 m by Betsy Anne (2:03.60) on June 3 at $8. Capable of bouncing back.
