Murtoa Race 4 - Footts Swan Hill Demolition Group Mdn Plate
SHE'S LOADED (8) is a seven-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1000m at Bendigo. Improvement to come and this is her chance to break through. SILENT GRIT (11) resumes after 6.5 months off but has been gelded since the last run and looks ready following a couple of trial wins. OTTALAUS (3) turned in a nice effort last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 0.8 lengths from the winner in second over 1000m at Ballarat Synthetic after being in contention on the corner. Tackling a more suitable race so he is a major player. PHENOMENORM (4) hadn't done much until the first-up third placing but that was a career-best effort and he can only be better for it. AGORAPHOBIC (12) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1000m at Ballarat Synthetic, beaten 2 lengths into sixth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.

Raced two times to date. At very big odds at debut, 9th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on July 30 over 1000m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Somers Green with 59.5kg at $201. Second-up ran second last of 9 in a Mdn-Sw at Mildura on August 8 over 1100m, 10 len behind Four On The Floor with 58kg at $91. Needs to lift.

Having second run back today. Last start did the work up front then tired 7th of 9 in a Mdn-Sw at Mildura on August 8 over 1100m, 10 len behind Four On The Floor with 57.5kg at $20. At only start last preparation sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 11 in a Mdn-Sw at this track on March 15 over 1300m, 11 len behind Monix carrying 57.5kg at $26. Hard to get excited about her chances.

Second-up. First-up after five months 4th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on July 30 over 1000m, slow going 5 len behind Somers Green with 57.5kg at $3.60. Previously second-up 4th of 8 in a Mdn-Sw at Geelong on January 26 over 1140m, 2 len behind Keep It Real with 56kg at $7.50. Plenty of improvement to come.

At debut, raced on the pace before fading 10th of 14 in a Mdn-Sw at this track on July 28 over 1300m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Budjik Queen with 57.5kg at $9.50. Better for the debut outing and draws to run an improved race.

Gelding by Vancouver on debut. Finished fifth in a Flemington jump-out on August 14. Tricky gate but any market moves would be a positive sign.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Ballarat Synthetic on August 6 over 1000m, 2 len behind Face The Wild carrying 55kg at $10. Before that 4th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Pakenham Synthetic on July 20 over 1100m, 6 len behind Praise Her carrying 55kg at $12. Certainly worth another chance.
