STARZ GAME SHOW SATURDAYS 7.30PM @ CLUB PACEWAY PACE 2125m

Track: FAST      

DILETTO (2) led from wider than this when scoring a 2.5m win at this circuit two back before another good showing for third in this grade last week. Up in distance but has won at it before. Big chance. RIO DE JANEIRO BLUE (7) draws on the back row again but has been racing well from there with back-to-back seconds before finishing only 2m away last week. Owns a decent record at this longer distance. Threat. POLKA DELIGHT (3) is a player again after coming from a similar barrier and finishing runner-up at Newcastle last time out. STELLINA (6) draws deeper but must be respected after she led to win here last week.
