Maryborough Race 4 - Maryborough Golf Club Trot
EL TORNADO (3) is back today after a layoff of two years. Closed the last prep in great style with a win by 3.5 metres over 1690m at Shepparton. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. WITH APLOMB (8) finished fourth last start over 2150m at Bendigo, beaten 7 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago over 1690m. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. Won't find this any harder and she can find winning ways. WATCH AND ACT (5) has paced in all of his last four starts and must be considered after he finished third over 2150m at Bendigo a week-and-a-half ago. TWEEDLEDEE NZ (7) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 2150m at Bendigo.

Solid run when a close second after a quick start, behind Jays All That at Bendigo over 1650m on May 13 at $4. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Karbine at Bendigo over 2150m on May 20 at $4.80. Great chance this time.
