Avoca Race 3 - Bet365 Top Finishes Mdn Plate
WEE BIT KINKY (10) was not a cheap yearling, and her debut run as a juvenile was encouraging. She is resuming as a far easier level, and has won the latest of her 2 public jump-outs. A reasonable draw is in her favour, and she should go very close to winning this, especially if the money comes for her. SECRET CROSSING (8) had an excuse when found to be mildly lame after her last start at Warrnambool over 1400m. Dropping back to 1200m will help her, and she is worth another chance. MISS HOME BODY (7) battled away gamely on debut at Pakenham-synthetic just over 2 weeks ago, and would have learned a lot from that experience. She will find this easier, and is worth each-way consideration. COURT JESTER (3) will be at his peak third up off the back of a couple of sound efforts for fourth to open his career. A good draw should have him right in the finish here.

Second-up. First start ran last of 14 in a 2yo Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on June 25 over 1100m, slow going 14 len behind Sharaz carrying 56.5kg at $101. Returned from break ran second last of 7 in a Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on September 20 over 1000m, 8 len behind Saturn Sky carrying 57kg at $51. Will need to improve sharply to be any chance.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, failed to make an impression; 8th of 11 in a 3yo F Mdn-Sw at Geelong on August 28 over 1147m, slow going 10 len behind Over Excited with 57kg at $21. Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 7 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Warrnambool on October 1 over 1200m, on a wet track; 19 len behind Thermic carrying 56kg at $21. Well suited here and is sure to take plenty of stopping.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, ran second last in a small field in a 3yo F Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on August 26 over 1000m, on rain affected going; 1.75 len behind London Fields carrying 57kg at $2.10. Last start raced on the speed throughout before fading 8th of 11 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Warrnambool on September 21 over 1400m, 10 len behind Prime Pattern with 56kg at $17. Has ability and a form reversal is on the cards.
