Maryborough Race 3 - Worlds Best Hoof Oil Trotters Discretionary Hcp
FREMARKS PEGGY (3) settled handy the went to the front and finished too well to win for the second time in a row last start over 2190m at this track, getting there by a nose. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. ROMANTIC NINA (5) settled well back in the running last start and finished fourth, beaten 8 metres, in a nice return to form at this track over 2190m. Primary contender in a similar race. TICTOK (8) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at Melton over 2240m. Genuine threat. WATCH AND ACT (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 2160m at Echuca.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 2.25 m third behind Jackies Gift at Echuca over 2160m last start. Before that was beaten a nose second at this track over 2190m same class on June 29. Genuine threat.

Two back was well beaten into fifth after a quick start, behind With Aplomb at Melton over 2240m on June 20 at $6.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third behind Pinnie at Melton over 2240m in a M on June 27 at $34. Bold showing expected again.
