Kilmore Race 3 - Apg Vicbred Super Series (4yo Entires & Geldings) (1st Heat)
THE LAST TRIP (4) has won all four starts since joining Emma Stewart for this campaign, drawing wider and working before scoring by 5m at Melton last time. Tackles some handy ones here but can take advantage of a lower draw. CIGANO (8) resumes after winning both outings last time in. Draws for a trail and is five from five when fresh so expect he'll be ready to fire again. SAO PAULO SIMBA (9) has had a month off since pulling up lame last start but had put together four straight wins at Menangle prior. Draws on the back row but he is a talent. FORTY LOVE (3) worked when close-up at Melton last start and was a class above at Mildura prior. Draws well and hasn't missed a place in seven tries at this distance, winning four. STORMS COLLIDE (7) draws wide but has come from similar barriers to place in both outings off a spell.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 5 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr7) held up early, at Melton (2:40.40) beating Pick Up Elvis in on August 22 at $1.50 at the bell was 3rd-3.49. Two runs back ran on from midfield and won by 11 m as favourite (Fr5) at Melton (2:39.40) beating Pick Up Elvis in on August 15 at $1.08 at the bell was leading 5.34. Tougher test but winning form is hard to fault.

Scored at his last five starts. Last start posted a big 13 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Hobart (2:37.90) beating Iron Clad in on August 16 at $1.16. Hard to leave out on current form. Bold showing expected again.

Didn't do much at the last run, 11th (Fr1) over 1720m after showing early pace at Melton, beaten 55 m by The Naked Art (2:01.20) on August 29 at $6. Before that 8th (Sr1) over 2240m at Melton, at the bell was 10th-16.75 beaten 19 m by Rocknroll Willow (2:40.40) on August 1 at $31. Others read better. Must do a lot more.

Fair run when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind The Art Of Success at Melton over 1720m on June 20 at $4.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Hoorah Philtra at Melton over 1720m on August 8 at $2.90. Draws wide but looks close to a win.

Resuming after ten weeks off the scene. Finished off last campaign recording just off the speed and boxed on; posted a big 4 m win as favourite (Fr6) at Melton (2:41.60) beating Sweet Ideal in on July 4 at $1.10 at the bell was 3rd-2.08. Previous preparation first-up won by 2.75 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at Melton (2:00.70) beating Soap And Bubbles in on June 13 at $1.25. Five from five when fresh and could maintain that perfect record.

Gave plenty of ground last start when well beaten into tenth after showing early speed, behind Glitter Aint Gold at Menangle over 2300m in a LR on August 8 at $2.80. Raced better the start before that where he won by a head as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr7) held up early, at Menangle (2:43.60) beating Sinaloa in on July 18 at $1.90 at the bell was 2nd-1.97. His best form measures up.

Last start was well back in the run when 9th (Fr9) over 1609m at Menangle beaten 8 m by Dom Toretto (1:52.80) on August 29 at $7.50. Two runs back 8th (Fr5) over 1609m after showing early pace at Menangle, at the bell was 2nd-1.01 beaten 13 m by Dessie Gee (1:51.00) on August 8 at $7. Not easy from this draw.
