Stawell Race 6 - Split 'N' Stawell Heating & Cooling Vicbred Voucher Trotters Hcp
WHOSHOTTHEPIEMAN (8) scored at his most recent outing by 18 metres in a far better performance at Swan Hill over 2240m when leading all of the way as the $1.70 favourite. Perfectly placed and is sure to be there at the finish again. SONARMI JOH (9) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 5.5 metres from the winner in fifth over 2180m at Terang. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. POPPY POPSTAR (7) disappointed last time when eighth over 2200m at Ballarat. Can turn things around. ITGETSBETTER (4) was in the money two starts ago then things went wrong last start when he broke and finished 12 metres away in fifth over 2190m at Maryborough afetr having raced outside the leader at the bell. Live chance in a similar assignment.

Last start 7th (Fr1) over 1690m at Maryborough, beaten 50 m by Boutika (2:05.20) in M on September 7 at $126. Two runs back 3rd (FT) over 2165m at Ararat was leading by 4 at the bell, beaten 25 m by Boutika (2:47.60) on August 23 at $41. This looks tough.

Last start won by 18 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Swan Hill (2:52.00) beating Colleagues in on September 8 at $1.70. Should be at his top third-up from a spell and looks the one to beat again.
