Swan Hill Race 6 - Arthur & Steve Track Curators Vicbred Voucher Pace
THEBUCKSONYOU (1) has the hoof on the till after coming from wider barriers to place in the last two outings. Went back last start then worked home in good style to finish 1.2 metres from the winner in third at Mildura. The ace draw gives him the chance to break through. SHARP INTEREST (9) was held up when beaten less than 5 metres last start. Recorded a series of good efforts prior including a minor placing at the previous appearance at Melton. Worth another chance. OZZIE CORKA (7) draws wide but enjoys a handy class drop here. LONGTAN VIPER (6) has been solid from the back line of late and won the last time he started on the front line.

Solid run when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Just Mocha at Mildura over 2190m on July 10 at $4.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Nevs Dream at Mildura over 1790m on July 17 at $6.50. Draws the pegs and is a top chance.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following July 10 run. Last start failed to make any headway until the straight; raced back and made ground from the turn; won by 1.3 m (Sr3) at Mildura (2:13.60) beating Whitehaven Beach in on July 17 at $10 at the bell was 8th-15.9. This race will be harder than that win. This looks a tougher task.

Improved last start with a solid effort when 3rd (Fr2) over 2100m at Charlton, at the bell was 3rd-5 beaten 3 m by To The Nines (2:34.40) on June 15 at $1.85. Decent effort last start. Could be in the mix.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 5 m eighth behind Norms Lady at Riverina Paceway over 1740m last start. Before that was beaten a head second at Melton over 2240m same class on July 4. Can bounce back.
