Geelong (H) Race 1

Betfocus Pace

Prize Money: $8,000

LENARD ESS (5) is in a purple patch of form having won his last two outings at Melton, the latest when overcoming a back row draw. Steps up a level but winning form is hard to knock. LIBERTY STAR DUST (9) enjoys a class drop off a Vicbred heat. Had come from this row when kicking off his campaign with a Melton placing and again when recording a Kilmore win in his next appearance. He is better placed in this company. CITY ROCKSTAR (8) has had to work in her two outings since a Ballarat placing but draws for a nice trail this time. NINEDOLLA TOASTIE (3) draws well and could be ready to peak after placing in both starts since a spell so must be considered.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth behind Viva Storm at Ballarat over 1710m on August 26 at $7.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Guaranteed Trouble at Cranbourne over 1609m on September 6 at $1.85. Draws well so a big run would not surprise.

Solid performance when a close second after a quick start, behind Hurrikane Dusty at Kilmore over 1690m on August 6 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third behind Owen The Saints at Kilmore over 1690m on September 3 at $17. Rates highly. Draws well and could be close to a win.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Vivid Dream at Melton over 1720m on July 31 at $19. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Just Pedro at Ballarat over 2200m on September 2 at $9.50. One of the key runners.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 8th (Fr4) over 1690m after showing early speed and racing wide at Kilmore beaten 19 m by Owen The Saints (2:02.60) on September 3 at $3.20. The run prior 9th (Fr3) over 1690m after showing early pace at Shepparton, beaten 25 m by Kia Ora Beauty (2:01.40) on August 4 at $9. This looks a nice assignment.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 30 m by The Niteshift (2:35.20) in 3yo on August 27 at $101. Showed ability the race before when he came from midfield and won by 3 m (Sr1) at Kilmore (2:42.60) beating Frosty Drop in on August 20 at $7 at the bell was 3rd-5.9. Suited back in grade and is capable of taking this out.
