Race 4

Prize Money: $773

MELBURY CURLY (3) hit the frame with a third two runs back then claimed an A5 by 4 lengths at this track over 500m (29.69) last time. Hard to knock latest effort and expected to measure up despite the tougher class. ROANNA ZARA (2) has been in super consistent form, finishing in the minors at her last four runs. Last start finished 3rd on February 1 over 500m at this track behind Deacon Pee Wee beaten 4 lengths (29.88) in an A3. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Bold showing expected. KILLACOLLA MIKE (1) continues to race well but is struggling to break through, placing at his last four runs. Last start finished 3rd over 500m at this track beaten 3.5 lengths (30.36) behind Done Me Dosh in an A3 on February 6. Overdue and is among the main hopes. BOWLES BULLET (4) profiles nicely here at this trip.

Showed little last start over 500m at this track when beaten 6 len (30.58) behind Done Me Dosh on February 6. Likely to find this too tough.
