Kilmore Race 6 - Kilmore Ford Trot
BETSY ANNE (4) placed for the second time in her last three starts when runner-up in a higher-graded last week at Swan Hill. The class drop gives her the chance to break through. BET BET HOTSHOT (3) gave a sight when he led and stuck on for third at his most recent outing, beaten 5.7 metres in stronger company at this circuit and distance. Draws to be prominent again. Major player. MACHO MAORI (5) broke last week but is another coming back in grade. With manners he can make his presence felt. LAVENGERS BOY (6) did some work last week so may be worthy of another chance.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten Stawell over 2180m, 3 days ago before that 7th (Fr1) over 1690m at Maryborough beaten 50 m by Boutika (2:05.20) in M on September 7 at $126. May improve from the ace draw.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Against The Bridle at Shepparton over 1690m on September 1 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Massif Central at this track over 1690m on September 10 at $7.50. One of the key runners.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr2) over 1690m at this track beaten 35 m by Massif Central (2:09.70) on September 10 at $11. The run before 5th (Fr2) over 2180m at this track, beaten 30 m by Aldebaran Denbay (2:46.70) on September 3 at $81. Certainly worth another chance.

Last start 8th (Fr3) over 1690m at this track, beaten 40 m by Massif Central (2:09.70) on September 10 at $8. Before that, 5th (Fr4) over 1710m at Ballarat beaten 20 m by Charlie Walker (2:09.10) on September 2 at $9.50. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Capable of going a lot better.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr4) over 1690m at this track beaten 20 m by Massif Central (2:09.70) on September 10 at $31. At his previous start game effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr6) over 1710m at Ballarat, beaten 9 m by Charlie Walker (2:09.10) on September 2 at $26. Can play a role in the finish.

Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr7) over 1690m at Maryborough, beaten 20 m by Lord Logan (2:04.50) on September 7 at $51. Before that, a good run when 2nd (Sr1) over 1710m at Ballarat, beaten 6 m by Charlie Walker (2:09.10) on September 2 at $10. Can play a role without surprising.
