Swan Hill Race 4 - Vhrc / Haras Des Trotteurs Trot

APEX (6) worked to find the lead and kept kicking, only to just miss out last time out over 2230m at Globe Derby Park. This is a nice drop in grade, so he is in the right race to find the winners' list. FRANKYTHEFRENCHMAN (1) finished sixth last start, beaten 15 metres at Ballarat over 2200m. Expect him to pose a serious challenge, especially from the perfect inside draw. SHIELD MAIDEN (9) is the next best after finishing third over 2180m at Stawell last time out. Include in all combinations. GET LUCKY (2) disappointed last time when seventh over 2190m at Maryborough. Can bounce back.

Didn't do much at the last run, 11th (Fr5) over 1690m at Shepparton, beaten 75 m by Miss Ohana (2:05.80) in 0-1 WIN on April 22 at $19. Before that 4th (Sr2) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 25 m by Sky Spirit (2:46.30) in 0-1 WIN on April 10 at $71. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind La Volonte at Maryborough over 1690m in a NR 37 to 42 on April 14 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third behind Surprise To Me at Stawell over 2180m in a No NR on April 18 at $17. Very hard to beat.
