Mount Gambier Race 3 - Maureen Aston Pace (Sky 2)
YNOBE NOVA (3) finished fourth last start, beaten 9 metres at Terang over 2180m. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Has the talent to take this out. ALLGOOD VINNIE (2) went back last start and couldn't make up the leeway when seventh, beaten 175 metres, at Terang over 2180m a month ago. Kept up to the mark with a subsequent placing at the trials. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This doesn't look as hard and is capable of taking this out if he can reproduce his win five starts back. EASTBRO KAZ (4) is better than her last-start eighth over 1660m at Hamilton. GOLD IN PARIS (5) is better than her last-start ninth over 2200m at Horsham.

At the run before 9th (Sr2) over 1710m at Ballarat was 8th-15.99 at the bell, beaten 18 m by Our Pinup Girl (2:03.00) on October 1 at $81. Draws the inside so worth another chance.

Among the leading chances on his win five starts back.

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 4th (Fr3) over 2180m after showing early pace at Terang, at the bell was 3rd-13.6 beaten 9 m by Huxham Chubb (2:40.10) on October 19 at $7. Before that, surrendered the lead and finished 10th (Fr1) over 1720m after showing early speed at Melton, at the bell was 4th-5.28 beaten 7 m by Bringsusjoy (2:03.80) on October 9 at $31. Coming good it seems so worth following up.

Didn't do much at the last run, 6th (Fr7) over 1660m at Hamilton, beaten 60 m by Steel The Moment (1:59.80) on October 26 at $151. Before that 9th (Sr3) over 1690m at Maryborough beaten 50 m by El Boston (2:02.00) on October 12 at $101. This looks a far sterner task.
