Maryborough Race 3 - Vsta Keith Semmens Memorial Vicbred Voucher Mares Trot
CHAMPAGNES (1) settled in the leading division the went to the front and finished too well to win for the second time in a row last start over 2190m at this track, getting there by 2.25 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Taking on a better field but she is good enough to take this out. ALDEBARAN SUSANNE (11) put together some minor placings then was at her best last start to score by a head over 2190m at this track on October 26. May just need a bit of luck at some point from this difficult draw. Meets a comparable field so she is capable of getting the job done again. HOLD THAT MAGIC (7) should be ready to peak now after finishing third over 2190m at this track five days ago. Expect her to give this a real shake. OOPZEE DAIZEE (6) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at Ararat over 1790m.

Seven-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at this track and Bendigo. Last start won by 2.25 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr5) at this track (2:44.20) beating Mattyo in NR up to 45 on October 13 at $2.20 at the bell was leading 2.4. Will be right in the thick of things.
