Geelong Race 8 - Cainys Plumbing & Electrical Pace

THE FINAL DANCE (1) drops in grade off the Vicbred Super Series where he had wide barriers in each round. Went into that series off a win at Melton where he led throughout from this barrier. He could do that again. Former Kiwi A SPECIAL OCCASION NZ (4) made a successful start in Victoria when he drew on the back row but worked to the lead and went on to score well at Ballarat, getting home by 7 metres. Stepping up a level this time but he is fitter for that last hit-out and looks capable of working through his grades. BETTORLEFTALONE (3) heads south after he was only 2 metres away in second after working when resuming at Penrith. Proven second-up so should be improved and has the benefit of a good draw. THE NAKED ART (7) draws wide but is going well having won two of her last three outings at Melton, the latest from the back row.
