Mildura Race 5 - Park Douglas Printing Pace
GRENADE (11) broke last start but still managed to fill a minor placing over 2190m at this track, finishing 4 metres from the winner. That was a pleasing progression after missing the placings the run before. Hard to know where he gets from this slightly awkward draw. Won't find this any harder and he take this out. DAYSIE BROWN (5) is in good form with top-five finishes at her last five starts, most recently recording a third over 2190m here. Has the ability to take this out. EARS THE BOSS (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 14 metres at this circuit over 2190m. Can go back-to-back. THE TOOTH FAIRY (1) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.

Two back was eighth after a quick start, behind Apology Accepted at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 45 on March 20 at $31. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Rocking Wroxton at this track over 1790m in a NR up to 39 on April 7 at $8.50. Expected to feature again.
