Mildura Race 9 - Zilzie Wines Pace (1St Heat)
NEVS DREAM (3) turned in a strong effort last time out when she scored over 2190m at this track, getting home by 9 metres after leading. That was her second success from her last three and she should have no excuses from this advantageous draw. INDIANAS SON (6) is racing well having clocked in second in both outings since winning here. Led and stuck on at his latest appearance, beaten 4.5 metres. Has the ability to take this out. ROJENBYE (5) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance here. CALF PEN NZ (7) broke last start but can be competitive with manners.

Racing consistently. Last start by 9 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr4) at this track (2:44.80) beating G B Brave in NR up to 46 on March 27 at $2 at the bell was leading 4.6. Hard to beat in this sort of form.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Rocknroll Lenny at this track over 1790m in a 0-3 WINs on March 20 at $21. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Shes Poppy at this track over 1790m in a NR 47 to 51 on March 27 at $5. Looks the testing material.
