Geelong Race 4 - Team Zav Pace

LORD VERDE NZ (6) is racing well with a long string of top-four finishes to his name including back-to-back wins last month. Raced wide in the latter stages when missing by just a head at Shepparton last time. Draws wider but with even luck can go one better. BAKERS BANDIT (5) was a winner from the second line three back at Terang and was good from a similar draw to this last time when he found the lead and stuck on for a 2.8m second. Freshened since but can measure up in this line-up. WHISKEYDRINKINGBILL (2) has been coming from wider or second row barriers of late so is on the radar from this more favourable draw. Similar story for ROYLANCE (1) who could show much more from the inside barrier.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr5) over 2200m at Ballarat, beaten 35 m by Just Pedro (2:41.40) in NR 45 to 50 on March 5 at $12. At the start before 6th (Fr2) over 1650m after showing early speed at Bendigo, at the bell was 2nd-2.09 beaten 9 m by Vincheska (1:58.60) in NR up to 50 on February 20 at $6.50. Capable of more than he has shown recently. The ace draw can see improvement.

At the run before was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 2180m at Kilmore, at the bell was 10th-13.7 beaten 12 m by Really Smartie (2:42.30) in NR up to 51 on February 26 at $26.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Where Is Woody at Maryborough over 2190m in a NR 50 to 55 on January 12 at $16. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.75 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Torque Power at Terang over 2180m in a NR 50 to 55 on January 26 at $9.50. Progressing well. Leading player.
