St Arnaud Race 1 - Goldacres Mdn Plate
JULEP (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.3 lengths from the winner in second over 1860m at Avoca after being prominent at the turn. That was the third second placing from her past six starts, most of which have come in tougher races than this, so she just needs to hold her form to be the one to beat. CONJURER (2) finished third last time over 2000m at Warrnambool, beaten 1.75 lengths, but should be ready now fourth-up and draws ideally. HEIDI HIGH (5) missed the placings two starts back when resuming then ran a better race and finished 5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 2000m at Warrnambool. Also drawn well and nearing peak fitness. Bit of a gap to the rest, but ALL MOONLITE (4) might be ready to improve up to this trip. Likewise DUN DIRT SWEET (10), who jumps sharply from 1400m to 2000m but has always shaped as a horse that would appreciate this trip.

Third race start today. At very long odds at debut, ran last of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Geelong on July 31 over 1200m, on a slow track; 28 len behind Royal Duck carrying 59.5kg at $151. Second-up ran second last of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Kilmore on September 13 over 1600m, slow going 9 len behind Earthly Crown carrying 59.5kg at $151. Not much to like about his prospects.

Recent form sound. Last start 3rd of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Warrnambool on October 15 over 2000m, 1.75 len behind Endless Fury carrying 59.5kg at $21. Before that 2nd of 10 in a Mdn-Hwgt at Warrnambool on October 1 over 1700m, slow going 7 len behind Enchilada carrying 69.5kg at $101. Will find less depth here If he can settle closer this time he will prove hard to hold out.

Raced twice to date. At big odds at debut, 8th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Echuca on September 19 over 1312m, 5.5 len behind Spex with 59.5kg at $26. Second-up sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 8 in a Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on October 4 over 1500m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Certainly Quiet with 59.5kg at $41. Looking elsewhere.

Third-up today. Resuming 7th of 10 in a Mdn-Hwgt at Warrnambool on October 1 over 1700m, slow going 13 len behind Enchilada with 67.5kg at $31. Second-up 5th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Warrnambool on October 15 over 2000m, 5 len behind Endless Fury with 57.5kg at $11. Likely improver and is expected to measure up.

Had two starts to date. At debut, ran second last of 9 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Hamilton on September 14 over 1200m, on a slow track; 9 len behind High Falls carrying 58kg at $13. Last start 7th of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Hamilton on October 10 over 1400m, slow going 6 len behind Moving Point carrying 57kg at $61. Heading the right way and looks ready to win in a race of this nature.
