Geelong Race 7 - Evolution Lodge Trot
FLYIN TIME (3) has yet to miss the top-four this time in, coming from this barrier for second last start at Kilmore, beaten 1.5 metres. Likely to get the favours and will be near peak fitness now so could break through. AGAINST THE BRIDLE (6) is hard to fault following back-to-back wins, the latest from this barrier when he worked to the front and scored by 2.5m. Could land the hat trick. WHY NOW (4) steps up in grade after breaking his maiden status last start but is lightly raced with upside. SHONEE (7) may need some luck from a wide barrier but has placed both times she has attempted this circuit and distance.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m second behind Aldebaran Denbay at Kilmore over 2180m last start. Before that was beaten 3 metres third at Melton over 1720m same class on August 7. Has a low draw and could break through.
