Kilmore Race 7 - C&M Build Group Trot
BETTOR MAN (9) came from a similar barrier to this and suffered gear failure so did well to finish third last start at Maryborough. Broke in the previous outing but that followed a fresh win. Placed both times he has raced here. Big chance if things go his way. WHATS THE TEA (5) backs up after he broke when well in the market at Cranbourne on Sunday. Eases back a little in grade on recent attempts and if he performs up to the back-to-back placings he recorded last month he could win a race like this. MASSIF CENTRAL (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.4 metres at this venue, his second success from his last three outings. KALARNEY PRINCE (2) only missed narrowly last start and should get his chance from a favourable draw.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing fifth behind Massif Central at this track over 1690m in a NR 37 to 41 on May 7 at $6.50. Then a handy effort when a close second after showing early speed, behind Waikare Adrienna at Shepparton over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on May 12 at $34. Draws for a strong showing.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Backing up quickly after 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at Cranbourne, beaten 20 m by Mista Walker (1:59.80) in NR up to 49 on May 17 at $4.40. The run prior was well back in the run when 6th (Fr4) over 2190m after being wide early at Shepparton, beaten 30 m by Waikare Adrienna (2:45.40) in NR up to 49 on May 12 at $6.50. Capable on best form and can bounce back.

Before that 8th (Fr3) over 2180m at this track, beaten 30 m by Paris Jamilla (2:46.80) in NR 42 to 46 on May 7 at $151. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.
