Dubbo Race 5 - Gilgandra Windmill Trophy Ladyship Pace
VALDEZZ (8) finished eighth two starts back at Riverina Paceway then followed that with a authoritative win last start over 2040m at Parkes, getting home by 20 metres after finding the lead in the early stages. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Meets a comparable field and she can go right on with the job. LAST FLITE (10) led at her most recent outing and saluted in a nice return to form at Parkes over 1660m, getting home by 12 metres. May just need a bit of luck at some point from this difficult draw. Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. SATELLITE SKY (1) is in the mix following a sixth at her most recent appearance over 1730m at Bathurst. THE HEATS ON LEXY (3) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at Canberra over 1770m.

Recent form below what she is capable of. Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr7) over 1730m at Bathurst, at the bell was 6th-10.83 beaten 2.75 m by Dear Darling (2:09.40) in NR up to 47 on March 4 at $101. The run prior was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr8) over 2260m at Bathurst, beaten 35 m by Esther Rising (2:48.40) in NR up to 50 on February 25 at $81. Big chance from a better draw.

Comes here second-up after two-and-a-half weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when she broke in score up and was out of position at the start 9th (Fr1) over 1660m at Parkes beaten 75 m by Rockin Sweet (2:02.50) in NR up to 38 on February 27 at $81. Cannot enthuse in this tough race.

Going well. Last start a big 12 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Parkes (2:04.20) beating Warrawee Jack in 0-1LTW on March 6 at $2.10 at the bell was leading 3.2. Can overcome the awkward draw to score again.
