GOING:

KILMORE FORD PACE 2180m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 38)    

HOME AND DRY (11) looks close to another win after back-to-back placings. Came from a similar barrier to this to miss by just 3.5m as runner-up at Melton last week. With even luck he could break through. KIMCHI (6) will enjoy the return to this circuit having yet to miss the placings in four previous visits including a win. PRECIOUS BELLE (3) was far from disgraced when she drew wide on the back row and finished midfield last start. Much better served by this draw having come from a similar barrier when runner-up at Maryborough prior. A drop in class and the ace draw can spark major improvement from ARCHAA (1).
