St Arnaud Race 10 - Gilmac Pace
BETA THAN LOVE NZ (1) produced yet another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1720m at Melton, adding to a string of recent minor placings. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Good enough to take out a race like this. ARRAPS (5) is in good form at present. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 3 metres. Meets a similar line up and he is a strong winning hope. THE REGULATOR (8) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1710m at Ballarat last time out. SKADI (4) is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance over 2100m at Charlton.
