Maryborough Race 5 - Worlds Best Hoof Oil Pace
REIGN EM IN (3) is going well having led and kept finding to score last time out at Bendigo, the fourth win from his past eight outings. Owns a good record at this venue and distance and a nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Primary contender. BLACKINDEED (5) resumes from a spell of five months after closing off last campaign in consistent form, winning twice within his last four starts. Readied with two trials, winning the latest. Could prove hard to beat on her return. SILVER MYSTIQUE (10) enjoys a class drop and will enjoy getting to this circuit where she has recorded two wins and a placing from four attempts. CARUSO STAR (4) must be respected off a last-start win by 6.5 metres from this barrier at Cranbourne.

Solid performance when a close third after showing early speed, behind Polly Peachum at Kilmore over 1690m in a NR 45 to 49 on February 27 at $3.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Foxyontherun at Kilmore over 2180m in a NR 45 to 50 on March 27 at $4.40. Rates highly. Place best.
