Mildura Race 3 - Celebrating Ouyen The Crouch Family Mdn Pace
OUR MONARCH (4) is at the track for the first time. By American Ideal and hails from the P C Bain stable. Has the right credentials to play a major role. LITLMAX (6) did a good job to finish second on debut two runs ago then broke shortly after the start and finished a distant seventh at the latest appearance over 2190m at this track. Meets a similar line up so she is sure to be a force if the manners improve. ALWAYS BENEFITS (2) is in the mix following a fourth at his first run back over 1609m at Charlton when sent out at long odds. BRIEISBETTER (1) has each-way claims after finishing fourth of eight here last start.

Last start 4th (Sr1) over 2190m at this track was 3rd-9.5 at the bell, beaten 15 m by Cheddar Cheese (2:46.10) on November 6 at $16. At her previous start solid effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr5) over 1750m at Swan Hill was 6th-19.4 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Hollow Log (2:07.90) on October 30 at $71. Sure to be thereabouts.

Last start was well beaten into seventh behind Cheddar Cheese at this track over 2190m on November 6 at $7. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Fr1) over 2190m after showing early speed at this track was 2nd-2.8 at the bell, beaten 9 m by Phils Boy (2:45.70) on October 20 at $7. Will be right in the thick of things.
