GOING: G

CENTRAL MURRAY BANK TROT 2170m

Track: GOOD      

LIZZIES SON (3) faded out as a hot favourite last time but he is much better than that. Was racing in good form prior with a string of top-four finishes including an easy win at Shepparton where he led from a similar draw to this. He deserves another chance. THATS DUDLEY (7) has been close to the placings at his last couple, last time beaten only 3.6m into fourth when off a 10m handicap at Echuca. Finds a suitable assignment and has winning claims. DHONI TROUBLE (6) broke but wasn't far away last time after a solid fourth two back. Building in fitness so is a chance with manners. ABBIE (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win at Bendigo where she raced wide from a back row draw but toughed it out.

Good run when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Abbie at Bendigo over 2150m in a NR up to 45 on April 9 at $18. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Settle The Bill at Shepparton over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on April 22 at $6.50. Another solid performance expected.

Gave plenty of ground last start when well beaten into ninth behind Abbie at Bendigo over 2150m in a NR up to 45 on April 9 at $1.24. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Sr5) over 1690m after being wide early at Kilmore was leading by 10.9 at the bell, beaten 2.25 m by Amour Maternal (2:06.10) in NR up to 45 on March 27 at $4. Rates highly. Drawn favourably and deserves another chance.
