Mildura Race 1 - C A. Fitness Pace
HEZ SO ROYAL (6) made a nice return at his latest appearance two weeks ago, finishing 4.5 metres away in third over 1790m at this track. Meets a similar line up so he can keep the ball rolling. MANINKY MOONSHINE (1) has been racing well of late. Finished fifth at his latest appearance over 1790m at this venue, beaten 6 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can grab that well-deserved win. GOOD BOOTS BINDI (7) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 1790m here a week ago. Top-three conveyance. THEBUCKSONYOU (4) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1790m at this course. One for the multiples.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr5) over 1790m at this track, at the bell was 7th-10.2 beaten 8 m by Wipeout (2:10.80) on June 26 at $34. At his previous start 6th (Fr2) over 2190m at this track beaten 65 m by Royal Saxon (2:38.90) on June 12 at $6.50. Good signs last start and this looks a more suitable contest.

Last start good run despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr4) over 1790m at this track was 5th-8.2 at the bell, beaten 1.2 m by Wipeout (2:10.80) on June 26 at $8. Two runs back raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 1.5 m (Sr1) at this track (2:14.30) beating Ruggards Gee Tee in on May 29 at $4.80 at the bell was 3rd-5. Another big run would not surprise.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten this track over 1790m, 7 days ago before that was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 1790m at this track was 5th-9.6 at the bell, beaten 11 m by Good Boots Bindi (2:12.40) on June 19 at $11. Not keen.

Continued his steady form from last campaign first-up. Returned to racing with a game effort when 3rd (Sr1) over 1790m at this track, at the bell was 2nd-3 beaten 4.5 m by Good Boots Bindi (2:12.40) on June 19 at $3. Won last start in his previous preparation at Globe Derby Park over 1800m 2yo LR CG. Sure to be right there at the business end.

Capable of taking this out.
