Mildura Race 2 - Mcdonalds Irymple & Mildura Pace

WILLIAMS (7) turned in a much better run last time out when runner-up over 2190m at this track, beaten 1.2 metres after leading. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go his way at some stage. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. AVOCA BLUES (1) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1790m at this track. Should run a big race. SHOTINTHEDARK (4) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1790m at this track. RONZEL MICKY (5) deserves respect off the last-start win.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Cemetery Bay at this track over 2190m in a NR 65 or better on April 17 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Royal Appointment at this track over 1790m in a NR 56 to 64 on April 24 at $21. Very hard to beat.
