Young Race 7 - Hilltops Equine Centre 2yo Pace
HES A DANCER (7) has been knocking on the door for a while and made it back-to-back Wagga placings when he raced parked but fought well to go under narrowly last time. This looks a suitable assignment so can break through. SHES PRETTY LOU (3) made it three top-three finishes on the bounce last start when she came from wider to finish 4.3 metres from the winner in third at Wagga. Should enjoy an economical run from this draw and will be at peak fitness now. MY SHIRAZ (8) may need some luck from this draw but is in contention after scoring last start by 3 metres at Canberra. BE BETTER (6) will find this easier than his last attempt at Menangle.

Last start 9th (Fr1) over 2270m at Riverina Paceway, at the bell was 5th-9.2 beaten 12 m by Machx The Stranger (2:45.00) on September 18 at $61. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr5) over 1758m at Leeton was 7th-16.6 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Miss Hermes (2:11.00) on September 1 at $51. Hard to have on those efforts.

Good performance when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Rock The Jet at this track over 1720m in a 2yo on October 27 at $5. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Del Licious at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in a 2yo on November 3 at $9. Cherry-ripe now and draws well so may break through.

Last start won by 3 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr5) at Canberra (2:09.60) beating Noogaleek Offkilta in 2yo on November 1 at $2.50 at the bell was leading 7.5. Awkward draw but in-form so can go well again.
