Geelong Race 2 - Evolution Lodge Bacchus Marsh Trotters Cup (2nd Heat)
JAKARTA NZ (10) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when he came from this barrier and finished 2.5 metres from the winner in second at Melton. With even luck he is good enough to put himself into the winners' stall. LEANNE LEEANN (8) is in good form with top-four finishes at her last four starts, most recently recording a second at Maryborough. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. Could break through. KIMBERLEYS TREE (3) draws well and is on the radar after her last-start fifth from the back line. NIGHT FLIGHT (7) owns decent records both here and at the distance so is worth another chance.

Has been mixing her form of late, most recently 4th (Fr3) over 2240m at Melton beaten 35 m by Kiss At Midnight (2:48.90) in M on November 6 at $41. Before that 7th (Fr1) over 1690m at Maryborough, beaten 24 m by Champagnes (2:04.60) on October 30 at $31. Hard to have on those efforts.

Recent efforts haven't been up to her best. Last start 5th (Sr2) over 1690m at Kilmore, at the bell was 3rd-2.82 beaten 9 m by Kyvalley Misty (2:05.80) in M on November 5 at $2.20. At the previous start 7th (Fr6) over 2190m after racing wide at Maryborough beaten 35 m by Little Miss Valley (2:43.80) on November 1 at $41. Draws for a good showing.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 5th (Sr1) over 2190m at Maryborough, at the bell was 5th-7.8 beaten 19 m by Little Miss Valley (2:43.80) on November 1 at $51. The start before 7th (Fr2) over 1720m after showing early pace at Melton, at the bell was leading 3.09 beaten 20 m by Coltrane (2:08.10) on October 24 at $7. Worth another chance. A better run is on the cards.

Good performance when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Kamaran at Maryborough over 1690m on October 25 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Little Miss Valley at Maryborough over 2190m on November 1 at $13. Likely to play a major role.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing third behind Majestic Monarch at Kilmore over 2180m on October 14 at $9. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Coltrane at Melton over 1720m on October 24 at $21. Going well and has to be respected.
