Geelong Race 4 - Apco We've Got You Pace

THE FINAL DANCE (5) kicked off the Emma Stewart barn with a dominant win at Ballarat two back then started a hot favourite again last time but nothing went to plan. Much better than that and he returns to the front row so can atone. BLUE MIKI (3) finished second last start at Ballarat, beaten 2.3 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance. No excuses from this advantageous draw so could give this a shake. CALEDONIAN TERRA (2) has been thereabouts of late and is a chance to break through after a good effort last time out when fourth at Cranbourne. The ace draw gives BETTORPATCHMEUP (1) every chance to continue his good form.
