Stawell Race 4 - Stawell Ag, Horse & Pet Pace
JUST LIKE NUGGET (3) made it two wins and a minor placing from his last three starts when he scored by 1.5 metres on September 2 over 2200m at Ballarat when sent out as the $3.20 favourite. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. PRESIDENTIALCHANGE (1) veteran who drew a wide gate last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 10 metres into sixth at Terang over 2180m. Likely to get all the favours from this better draw. Taking on a better field but he is capable of running a much better race. FARROH JOE (2) is better than his last-start seventh over 2240m at Melton would suggest. Meets an easier line-up here and can atone. THE BLAZINBOOTS (5) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 2180m at Terang. Having his first start at this track and has each-way claims.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 2180m at Terang was 2nd-2.7 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Jilliby Kymy Lou (2:45.90) on August 30 at $31. Showed ability the outing before when he won by a head when quickly away, (Fr1) at Ararat (2:48.30) beating Iamawingate in on August 23 at $6 at the bell was leading 1.4. Best form should see him in the finish.

Racing consistently. Last start won by 1.5 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr4) at Ballarat (2:40.60) beating Blue Miki in on September 2 at $3.20. Should be hard to beat again.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind War Zone at Ballarat over 1710m on August 19 at $7. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Jilliby Kymy Lou at Terang over 2180m on August 30 at $4.60. Forward performance expected.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten Maryborough over 2190m, 7 days ago before that 6th (Fr2) over 2200m at Ballarat, beaten 14 m by Just Pedro (2:40.80) on September 2 at $18. Hard to have on those efforts.

Didn't do much last time out, broke in score up and was out of position at the start was well beaten after breaking at Swan Hill on September 8. Before that surrendered the lead and finished 8th (Fr2) over 2240m after showing early speed at Swan Hill, well beaten by Jet To Heaven (2:45.10) on July 24 at $18. Not doing enough.
