Kilmore Race 1 - Next Payments Pace
OWEN THE SAINTS (8) came from this row for a win at this circuit and distance before a second at his latest appearance at Swan Hill, beaten 4 metres. Shouldn't spend a penny from this draw and sprint lane may come in handy. Big chance. TA KALCHE (5) is a big query as he hasn't raced since he won on debut at this circuit and distance more than two years ago. He is clearly capable and has been trialling well so looking for a good return. DALLASCOWBOY (9) has tackled some smart rivals in his last two outings but came from this row when he scored at Shepparton last month. CHAINSMOKE (6) should strip fitter and is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 3.7 metres when resuming at Swan Hill.

Didn't do much last time out, 6th (Fr1) over 1690m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 6 m by Owen The Saints (2:02.60) on September 3 at $26. Before that was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr7) over 1609m after racing wide at Cranbourne was 2nd-3.6 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Posterized (1:57.30) on August 2 at $41. Wait until the form picks up.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fifth behind Master Miki at Shepparton over 2190m on September 1 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Hiltons Spirit at Melton over 2240m on September 9 at $15. Could progress further third up.

Eight-year-old gelding lining up for the second time. Won at debut when just off the speed and boxed on; won by a nose as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at this track (2:05.60) beating Hello Sweetheart in 4yo+ on July 18 2024 at $1.60 at the bell was 2nd-5.8m on the pegs. Has had a long time off but has talent and has bern trialling well.

Last preparation only had 3 starts before going for a break. Returned to racing with a handy win a big 3.5 m win (Sr1) at Swan Hill (2:47.10) beating Over The Line in on September 8 at $11. Strips fitter and is a chance for back-to-back wins.

Back in form at the last couple of outings, two starts back won by a head (Sr2) at this track (2:02.60) beating Feel The Reign in on September 3 at $9.50. Last start just missed, solid effort when 2nd (Fr1) over 1750m at Swan Hill beaten 4 m by Leonard (2:05.20) on September 8 at $2.50. With any luck from the second row he has winning claims again.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr3) over 1740m after showing early speed at Riverina Paceway was 3rd-4.4 at the bell, beaten 7 m by Eye Wish (2:01.00) in 3yo on September 11 at $9.50. At the previous start 8th (Sr2) over 2180m at this track beaten 45 m by The Niteshift (2:35.20) in 3yo on August 27 at $34. This looks a suitable contest.
