Pakenham Race 2 - Eliza Takes On Ryan Mdn Plate
BAYOU MUSIC (1) looks nicely placed stepping up to 1400m off the back of a strong debut at Mornington over 1200m, finding the line nicely to grab second. By Street Boss, he'll relish this trip and draws for every chance. BELLA PIETRA (6) has placed in both starts to date, solid behind a potentially smart one in a rich Donald 2yo race. No issue rising in trip now and should take catching with Jamie Melham booked. CAELIUS (2) ran a much better race here last time out when finding the line well for second. Has been big odds in two runs to date but comes right under notice now. FLIGHT SERGEANT (4) is a colt by Russian Camelot for the Danny O'Brien yard who of course trained the sire to great success. He looks like he'll get over further but watch the betting. MOTHERDUCK (8) is a rough chance.

At debut, came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Mornington 2yo Mdn-Sw on May 12 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Morgana with 58kg at $8.50. Shows ability and expected to improve. Open to plenty of improvement and will go close.

Having third race start. At big odds at debut, eased back early on 8th of 11 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw on April 17 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Maldini with 58kg at $41. Second-up made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 10 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw on May 8 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Gabor with 58kg at $19. Can measure up strongly.

First starter. Two-year-old colt by Russian Camelot out of Transonic. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 1000m at Caulfield Heath May 15. Trials just fair but must respect stable.

Second-up. First start ran last in a small field at Geelong 2yo Mdn-Sw on December 5 over 1121m, 6 len behind Beskar with 58kg at $26. Went for a spell before returning 9th of 11 at Sale Mdn-Sw on May 18 over 1112m, slow going 5.5 len behind Maingirlmaddy carrying 57kg at $7. Fitter but prefer to see again.

Had two starts to date. At debut, sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw on April 17 over 1200m, 2.25 len behind Maldini with 56kg at $17. Last start set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 10 at Donald 2yo SW on May 3 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Diamond Gust with 56kg at $7. Gets her chance. Rates highly looks hard to beat.

Filly by Ilovethiscity facing the starter for the first time. Fitter for a jump-out on May 12 at Ararat when finished seventh. Others profile better and may need more time.
