Mildura Race 1

C.a. Fitness Pace

Prize Money: $6,000

SNEAKY PHILTRA (4) made it three wins from her last four starts when she up plenty of ground to get the prize at her latest appearance over 1790m at this track. Facing a tougher assignment but she is up to the task. STARVIN MARVIN NZ (1) finished third last start, beaten 10 metres at this track over 2190m. Expect him to be prominent. THE AFRICAN QUEEN (2) has a good gate, and is on the radar after her last-start fifth over 2190m at this track a week ago. WHITEHAVEN BEACH (5) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fifth at this track over 2190m. Each way value.

Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr3) over 2190m at this track, at the bell was 8th-13 beaten 9 m by Rubbleonthedouble (2:46.70) on July 31 at $6.50. Before that, 6th (Fr3) over 1790m at this track, at the bell was 5th-9.4 beaten 4 m by Ronzel Micky (2:13.60) on July 17 at $10. Coming good it seems so worth following up.
