UNITED PETROLEUM MAIDEN PACE 2150m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
EPIC ERNIE (7) finished second last start over 1740m at Riverina Paceway, beaten a nose, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 2240m at Swan Hill. Must overcome a very wide draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. YA BOTTOM DOLLAR (8) is back from a break of ten months and looks to be right up to the mark following a placing in a recent trial. Drawn to enjoy an economical run and might sweat on the sprint lane. Will have plenty of admirers. ROLLING BONUS (1) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1690m at Shepparton a week and a half ago. ASHFORD SHARK (2) is resuming from a long spell and a market watch is advised with a good draw to work with.
