Maryborough Race 1 - Mcphersons Printing Group 2Yo Maiden Trot
ICONIC IMAGE (10) made a mess of the start when favourite on debut but showed ability when he again broke but recovered to place at Bendigo last time. Still learning and draws on the back row but has plenty of upside. KYVALLEY RAY NZ (3) is a colt by Bold Eagle on debut for the Brent Lilley yard. Has shown talent in winning two trials, the latest at Melton. A good draw could see him kick off with a win. Elite Stride filly ELLE PERFECTO (4) looks to have some ability, finishing runner-up in both trials. Looking for a good debut showing. MYSTICAL TRUSCOTT (8) began badly on debut but is open to improvement.

Last start then settled down to finish fifth over 1650m at Bendigo last start. At her previous start good run when 2nd (Sr1) over 1650m at Bendigo was 5th-16.9m on the pegs at the bell, beaten 4.5 m by Truscotts Elegance (2:06.60) in 2yo 0-1 WIN on March 19 at $41. A big run would not surprise.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Aldebaran Tucker at Bendigo over 1650m in a 2yo MAIDEN on March 5 at $2.15. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind What The Tooth at Bendigo over 1650m in a 2yo MAIDEN on March 26 at $2.90. Can progress enough to win.
