Maryborough Race 2 - Join Your Local Carisbrook Lions Club Mdn Trot
SPESHAL (5) went back last start then worked home in good style to finish 40 metres from the winner in third at Stawell over 2180m, adding to her second at this track two runs back. Primary contender in this comparable race. DONNYOSKO (1) resumes from a spell of three months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid third over 2150m at Bendigo. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Will have plenty of admirers. GREAT HORIZON (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth at Shepparton over 2190m. Must be included. ARIVADERCHI (2) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 2180m at Stawell last time out.

Resuming after three months off the scene. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into third behind Verbici at Bendigo over 2150m in a 2yo on May 6 at $31. Winning prospects.

Fair run when beaten by 5 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Ripping Ronaldo at this track over 2190m on July 13 at $4.20. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind I Am Skye Chiola at Stawell over 2180m on July 20 at $4.20. Expected to be in the finish again.

Last start 6th (Fr5) over 2200m at Horsham beaten 30 m by Rama Saigo (2:50.80) on July 27 at $10. Two runs back 6th (Fr6) over 2180m at Stawell, beaten 90 m by I Am Skye Chiola (2:47.20) on July 20 at $8.50. Will not find this easy. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
