Kilmore Race 8

Mc Labour Vicbred Voucher 2yo Mdn Pace

Prize Money: $6,000

CASTERTON (11) started a hot favourite on debut at Melton but made a mess of the start. Hails from the leading Emma Stewart yard so while he starts on the back row he is worthy of another chance. HEAVENLY GEM (2) is racing well with three placings in succession, last start battling on well from this barrier at Terang but finding one better. Big chance to break through. WHITEHAVEN BOY (3) had a tough barrier in the Vicbred Super Series Final last start. This is a big class drop and he draws better. Last-start placegetter HOSO MAGIC (10) could feature again.

Comments

Two back was well beaten into third behind Kahula at Melton over 2240m in a 2yo G1 on September 12 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Jilliby Sniper at Terang over 2180m in a 3yo on September 28 at $3.10. Rates highly. Close to a win.

Two-year-old colt lining up for the second time. At debut broke in score up and was out of position at the start 12th (Fr6) over 2240m at Melton well beaten by Baystyle (2:42.60) in 2yo on September 18 at $1.65. Got it wrong on debut but worth another chance.
