Kilmore Race 3 - Apg Vicbred Super Series (3yo Colts & Geldings) (3rd Heat)
NEPTUNITE (9) made it three wins in succession at his latest appearance over 1740m at Riverina Paceway, scoring by 8 metres after taking control of the race a long way from home. Finds a nice race and will be a major force once more. SOHO CHARMER (11) has recorded two wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Didn't let supporters down at his latest appearance when he got the job done by a head over 1609m at Menangle. Hard to know where he gets from this slightly awkward draw. Has the class to take care of this field. SEASIDE BOY (7) has top-three claims off a last-start win by a nose at Melton over 1720m. BANJO STAR (1) is the next elect off a last-start win by 23 metres at Hobart over 2090m.

Steps out over an extra 490m after a solid effort last start; won by 8 m when quickly away, (Fr5) at this track (2:05.10) beating Ashante Cadman in 3yo on August 13 at $15 Last effort had merit but has the task ahead this time. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
