Deniliquin Race 5 - Deniliquin Rsl Club Anzac Day Cup (Bm66)
POSITIVO (5) was in contention all the way and fought on for third last start over 1600m at Swan Hill, making it two minor placings in a row. Will need a good ride from John Keating off the awkward draw. Finds the right race this time and can take the next step and salute. HYDROGEN POWER (4) finished 2.8 lengths away from the winner last time at Stawell and drops in the weights. Reunites with Bradley Vale who has a win when partnering. Bold showing expected. ALTERNATE (3) was a narrow winner two back at Berrigan then in the placings last time at Kerang. Will appreciate the big weight drop. Change of rider to Milos Bunjevac who has an excellent strike rate when in the saddle, including three wins. Expected to measure up. SAN MARCO (2) is close to breaking through with three placings from six starts this prep, last time out finishing second over 1700m at Hillston. One of the contenders.
