Mildura Race 7 - The Butcher Mildura Pace (4Th Heat)
MARIAHS SHADOW (4) disappointed backers last time out when seventh, beaten 18 metres, over 2190m at this track. With the right run, she is the one to beat in this. Follow your money. PUNTO CALIENTE (7) was responsible for a far better performance at his latest appearance when he scored by 1.5 metres over 2190m at this track. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Tackles a similar assignment, and he can go right on with the job. RED HOT MIKI (10) disappointed last time when eighth over 1790m at this track. Can atone. SHIREEN (8) is in the mix at her first run since finishing sixth over 1790m at this track four-and-a-half months ago. Each way value in an even contest.

Comes here second-up after a week. Lacklustre first-up performance when 6th (Fr2) over 2190m at this track was 6th-8 at the bell, beaten 19 m by Punto Caliente (2:47.40) in NR up to 49 on March 21 at $11. Hard to have in this line-up.

In good form last start. Raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by a nose when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (2:15.60) beating Melfield Soryt in MAIDEN on March 21 at $31 at the bell was 2nd-4.2. Two runs back 3rd (Sr3) over 2190m at this track was 5th-5.6m on the pegs at the bell, beaten 4.5 m by Nanna Helen (2:46.80) in MAIDEN on March 14 at $18. Will find this tougher.

Failed to impress last start; was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr5) over 2190m after being wide early at this track, at the bell was 10th-18.8 beaten 18 m by Orama (2:45.90) in NR up to 49 on March 21 at $2.40. Showed ability the outing before when she won by 2.25 m (Sr2) at this track (2:14.60) beating Beartastic Writer in NR up to 49 on March 14 at $3.40 at the bell was leading 2m 2WNC. Can bounce back to form.

Last start 5th (Fr6) over 2190m after showing early pace at this track was leading by 1.6 at the bell, beaten 19 m by Punto Caliente (2:47.40) in NR up to 49 on March 21 at $6. At his previous start 7th (Sr3) over 1790m at this track, at the bell was 9th-21.8m 2WWC beaten 12 m by Mariahs Shadow (2:14.60) in NR up to 49 on March 14 at $11. Certainly up to this and expected to do much better.

Last start 8th (Fr6) over 2190m after showing early speed at this track, beaten 55 m by Calf Pen (2:44.10) in NR up to 49 on March 21 at $34. Before that, 7th (Fr5) over 1790m after showing early speed at this track beaten 22 m by Our Master Play (2:13.20) in NR up to 49 on March 14 at $21. Can improve enough to feature.

Going well. Last start won from midfield and won by 1.5 m (Fr4) at this track (2:47.40) beating Bella Abby in NR up to 49 on March 21 at $5 at the bell was 5th-6.8. Looks hard to beat again.

Second up after running 4th (Fr3) over 2190m at this track was 4th-7.2 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Machstique (2:47.00) in NR up to 49 on March 21 at $19. This looks a far sterner test.

Recent form below what he is capable of.
