Kilmore Race 7 - Picklebet 'Get Your Pickle On' Trot

EZRA KAI (5) could only manage to finish sixth at his latest appearance over 2240m at Melton, failing to live up to market expectations. Won't find this any harder and he can bounce back to his best form. SEBASTIANS WAITING (1) came from a long way back last start and finished second, beaten 3.5 metres, in a nice return to form at Cranbourne over 2080m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Leading hope in a similar race. DISTANT SUN (6) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 5.5 metres at this track over 1690m. SHES SKY HIGH (2) was out of the money two starts ago then things went amiss last start when she broke and finished a distant last over 1710m at Ballarat. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Only needs to get things right to be in the money.

Last start 9th (Sr2) over 1710m at Ballarat beaten 45 m by Champagnes (2:07.70) in M on July 29 at $3.60. At the start before was well back in the run when 4th (Fr6) over 2080m at Cranbourne was 6th-11.4 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Rarity Rock (2:37.70) on June 14 at $4.40. Rates highly on best form and can bounce back.

Well-beaten 27 days ago at Melton over 2240m, before that was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr5) over 2150m after being wide early at Bendigo, beaten 14 m by Rocky Valley (2:37.00) on June 24 at $13. This looks out of her reach.

Last start posted a big 5.5 m win (Sr2) at this track (2:04.40) beating Ox Knox in on July 30 at $7 at the bell was 5th-8.83. Draws better this time so with a bit of luck he can feature in the finish again.
