Kilmore Race 5 - Broadstead Kilmore Pace

HITCH TO HIS STAR (7) is racing well having recorded two wins and three minor placings from six starts so far this time in. Won from this barrier two back at Wagga then went back but worked home in good style to finish 2.7 metres from the winner in second at Melton last time Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw but with even luck he is going well enough to win. TELERN LOFTY (1) was solid when midfield last start at Melton after missing narrowly at Bendigo. Has recorded two wins and two placings from four tries at this distance and draws to advantage. CLYMENUS NZ (8) did a good job to come from a wide barrier for a 1.3 second at his most recent appearance at Melton. Draws for a trail and could be dangerous. OZZIE CORKA (2) draws much better than last start and won the only time he raced over this distance here.
