Mildura Race 1

Pfd Food Services Pace (1St Heat)

Stake: $4,320

BELLA ABBY (1) finished seventh last start over 2190m at this track, after filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1654m at Ouyen. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw and is good enough to take out a race like this. GLENLEA HANOVER (2) was in the money here two runs ago before finishing sixth at her latest appearance over 2190m at this circuit, beaten 20 metres. Big chance if things go her way. SNEAKY PHILTRA (9) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 2190m at this venue a week ago. Top-three candidate. SUPER SUSPECT (7) disappointed last time when seventh over 2190m at this course. Can bounce back.

Last start was seventh behind Cruz With Rome at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on May 16 at $3. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Fr2) over 1654m at Ouyen was leading by 3.4 at the bell, beaten 3 m by Chalkncheddar (2:04.40) in NR up to 39 on May 11 at $2.80. Should be in the finish.

Last start was sixth after a quick start, behind Cruz With Rome at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on May 30 at $3. Performed better the start before with a game effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr5) over 1790m at this track beaten 9 m by Lord Verde (2:13.10) in NR up to 49 on May 23 at $5.50. Rates highly and can atone.

Two back was eighth behind Bilum at this track over 1790m in a NR up to 49 on May 23 at $3.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Cruz With Rome at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on May 30 at $4.20. Expected to feature again.
