Mildura Race 1 - Ca Fitness Pace
ALWAYS ON SAFARI (1) went back from a wide gate on the second line last start and didn't really threaten when 14 metres from the winner in fifth at this track over 1790m. Meets a comparable field and from a far better starting position he can figure in the finish. HOOKLINEANDSINKER (3) ran fourth last start at this circuit over 1790m, beaten 12 metres. Expected to run well. TO THE NINES (8) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a second over 2100m at Charlton. Great chance to break through. ROCKNROLL LENNY (9) must be respected after scoring last start by 7 metres here over 1790m. Top-three aspirations.

Well beaten last start by Rocknroll Lenny, a rival who he faces again; was restrained, when 30 metres seventh at this track over 1790m in a 0-3 WINs race on March 20. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten this track over 2190m, 7 days ago before that was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr5) over 1790m after racing wide at this track beaten 30 m by Our Art Work (2:08.30) in NR up to 59 on March 10 at $23. Hard to have on those efforts.

Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 9 m win when quickly away, (Fr1) at this track (2:42.90) beating Rocknroll Lenny in NR 47 to 51 on March 10 at $2.90 at the bell was leading 0.67. Can play a role in the finish.

Last start was second behind Heatseeker at Charlton over 2100m in a NR 50 to 55 on March 15 at $8. Raced better the start before that with a game effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Sr2) over 2150m at Birchip was 6th-6.6 at the bell, beaten a head by Shotinthedark (2:41.10) in NR up to 55 on March 8 at $4.60. Bold showing expected again.

Last start won by 7 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (2:12.10) beating Indianas Son in 0-3 WINs on March 20 at $2.40 at the bell was leading 0.4. In fine form and looks a serious player again.
