Maryborough Race 6 - Bartlett Manufacturing Graduation Series 3yo & Older Trot (2nd Heat)
ARGYLE MUSE (1) is first up seven months having contested the Vicbred Super Series Final at Melton when last seen and finished third here prior to that series, her third placing from five attempts here. Readied with a trial and is ideally drawn so could return in winning form. KIMBERLEYS TREE (4) broke when resuming in a standing start race but ended last campaign with a series of top-three finishes from behind a mobile including a Cranbourne win. Improver. MAJESTIC SKY (7) last appeared when fourth at Shepparton ten months ago. Draws wide but a nice trial suggests he has matured since last seen. SHONEE (3) has been readied for her return by placing in two trials and should not have any excuses from the favourable draw.

First up. At the last run she 8th (Fr1) over 2240m after showing early pace at Melton, beaten 30 m by Harperseven (2:46.70) in 2yo G1 F on November 22 at $151. The ace draw gives her the chance to make a winning return.

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 5th (Fr1) over 2150m after showing early pace at Bendigo, beaten 21 m by Banos (2:43.10) in 3yo+ on June 10 at $23. Two runs back surrendered the lead and finished 2nd (Fr4) over 2190m after showing early pace at Shepparton beaten 2 m by Jilliby Topgun (2:48.10) on June 2 at $11. Form not inspiring.

Resumes. At the latest first-up run failed to finish when he ran at Terang on May 19 2025 over 2180m. Recent trials will help bring him on but a lack of race-fitness might work against.

Won on debut raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 4 m (Fr1) at Terang (2:51.00) beating I Am Skye Chiola in on May 18 at $3.60 at the bell was 3rd-4.8. Won a trial since the debut win and while drawn wide he has some upside.

Before that, broke in score up and was out of position at the start 7th (Fr2) over 1690m at this track well beaten by Queen Of Sees (2:05.70) in 3yo on May 31 at $8.50.
