Maryborough Race 9

Get To The Ararat Cup Friday Feb 27 Trot

Prize Money: $6,000

JUST AS I AM (11) cops a tricky draw on the back row but has been very good from wide barriers in two starts so far this campaign, cruising home first-up before sticking on for a last-start second. Kept fresh since but goes well that way and has upside. KYVALLEY JETSTREAM NZ (10) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 1.2 metres from the winner in second at Kilmore. That made it two wins and two seconds from the last five starts. With an ounce of luck from this tricky draw he can make an impact again. BULLAPARK BENO (12) also has an awkward barrier to contend with but did well when fourth in a higher-graded race at Bendigo last time out. JUST ABIT DUSTY (4) won easily two back then gave a sight from this barrier here last time when beaten less than 3m. Can be involved again.

Four-year-old mare lining up for the second time. Won at debut when by a head after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Cranbourne (2:46.10) beating Laras Dream in MAIDEN on January 18 at $26. This looks a step up but has upside and the ace draw.

Solid run when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Sebastians Waiting at Ballarat over 1710m in a NR 50 to 55 on January 8 at $16. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Quirky Character at Kilmore over 2180m in a NR 52 to 56 on January 22 at $13. First four hope.

Has won at her last two outings. Last start won by 1.2 m when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at this track (2:47.00) beating Fremarks Peggy in NR up to 49 on January 28 at $8.50 at the bell was 8th-15.6. Going well but the back row draw and a class rise makes this more of a challenge.
