Ararat Race 7

The Mes And Barracks Pace

Stake: $6,600

DIDAFULL ONEEIGHTY (3) resumes after finishing eighth at her latest appearance at Melton on August 30. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Has the talent to take this out. NOSWEETSFORYOU (2) turned in a strong performance last time when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1710m at Ballarat. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Leading hope based on that recent effort. MARTYR (4) is worth another chance after a last-start 11th over 1650m at Bendigo a week-and-a-half ago. HERNIE (1) disappointed last time when ninth over 1690m at Maryborough. Can do a lot better, so worth considering on an each way basis from the perfect inside draw.

Last start 9th (Fr4) over 1690m after showing early pace at Maryborough, beaten 35 m by Jetter Son (1:59.20) in NR 50 to 55 on April 2 at $7. At the start before 4th (Fr7) over 1785m after being wide early at Stawell was leading by 0.7m 2WNC at the bell, beaten 13 m by Keayang Galliano (2:10.60) in NR 50 to 55 on March 19 at $7.50. Capable of a better showing.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.75 m second behind Chasing Rex at Ballarat over 1710m NR 57 to 64 last start. Before that was beaten 5 metres second at Hamilton over 2160m in NR 54 to 64 on March 26. Among the major players on her latest effort.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 11th (Fr6) over 1650m after showing early speed and racing wide at Bendigo, beaten 55 m by Good Tobe Locksley (1:55.40) in NR 56 to 64 on March 26 at $7. The run before 8th (Fr3) over 2190m after showing early pace at Shepparton, at the bell was leading 0.8m on the pegs beaten 70 m by Mongiana (2:37.20) in NR 60 to 66 on March 18 at $4.20. Certainly worth another chance.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Sr1) over 2160m at Hamilton, at the bell was 4th-9 beaten 13 m by Keayang Taco (2:34.60) in NR 54 to 64 on March 26 at $61. Before that was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr4) over 1785m at Stawell, at the bell was 7th-15.8m on the pegs beaten 6 m by Sportsbou (2:09.80) in NR 55 to 60 on March 19 at $81. Not keen on his chances in this field.

Failed to impress last start; 8th (Fr3) over 2240m at Swan Hill beaten 22 m by Neatntidy (2:42.60) in NR 56 to 64 on March 25 at $34. Showed ability the outing before when he won by a nose (Fr5) held up early, at Charlton (1:58.70) beating Spirit Of Sahara in NR 50 to 55 on March 16 at $21 at the bell was 4th-5.9m 2WWC.
