Mildura Race 5 - Mcdonalds Irymple And Mildura Pace
THEBUCKSONYOU (2) ran fifth last start at this track over 2190m, beaten 12 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. MASON DIXON LINE (4) ran second last start at this track over 2190m, beaten 4 metres. Expecting a very good run. LEWIELEWIS (3) was responsible for a better effort last time out when third over 1720m at Melton. Should run a big race. SHES POPPY (1) is the next elect off a last-start win by 8 metres at this track over 1790m.

Last start 5th (Fr2) over 2190m at this track, at the bell was leading 2.6 beaten 12 m by Carlisle Cruiser (2:42.40) in NR 50 to 55 on December 10 at $3.40. Before that, a game effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr5) over 1790m at this track was 7th-12.6 at the bell, beaten 5 m by Louieville (2:10.30) in NR 50 to 59 on December 3 at $41. Capable of a strong showing.

Two back was well beaten into tenth after being driven well back, after a quick start, behind Carlisle Cruiser at this track over 2190m in a NR 50 to 55 on December 10 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Happenstbabeachboy at Swan Hill over 1750m in a NR 40 to 50 on December 16 at $3.70. Strong winning prospects.

Didn't finish last start at this track before that 8th (Sr3) over 2190m at this track, beaten 30 m by Starvin Marvin (2:42.20) in NR 50 to 59 on November 21 at $81. Recent efforts only moderate - hard to see him featuring in the finish.
