Race comment
OVERVIEW: REPELLING (6) trailed the leader MOMENTUM SWING (5), used the sprint lane and just failed to run that pacer down when a narrow second at Cobram then followed with a fifth in a heat of the Central Victorian Championship, where he endured a tough run. He hasn’t had much luck since a Bendigo victory on February 08 and must be included amongst the leading chances. MOMENTUM SWING (5) won a race of similar standard after leading throughout last outing. He did enjoy the perfect run last time and he might not find the lead so easily here but he is worth thought again. SOFALA (3) worked out of the gate before taking cover and finished off well when a close second at Swan Hill last outing. He should be competitive from his good draw. NIGHT SCHOOL (9) and AMERICAN LEGACY (10) are both dropping back in class and are not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 5,6,7 RATINGS: 6/ 3,5/ 9,10/ 4

Race comment
OVERVIEW: REPELLING (6) trailed the leader MOMENTUM SWING (5), used the sprint lane and just failed to run that pacer down when a narrow second at Cobram then followed with a fifth in a heat of the Central Victorian Championship, where he endured a tough run. He hasn’t had much luck since a Bendigo victory on February 08 and must be included amongst the leading chances. MOMENTUM SWING (5) won a race of similar standard after leading throughout last outing. He did enjoy the perfect run last time and he might not find the lead so easily here but he is worth thought again. SOFALA (3) worked out of the gate before taking cover and finished off well when a close second at Swan Hill last outing. He should be competitive from his good draw. NIGHT SCHOOL (9) and AMERICAN LEGACY (10) are both dropping back in class and are not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 5,6,7 RATINGS: 6/ 3,5/ 9,10/ 4

Race comment
OVERVIEW: REPELLING (6) trailed the leader MOMENTUM SWING (5), used the sprint lane and just failed to run that pacer down when a narrow second at Cobram then followed with a fifth in a heat of the Central Victorian Championship, where he endured a tough run. He hasn’t had much luck since a Bendigo victory on February 08 and must be included amongst the leading chances. MOMENTUM SWING (5) won a race of similar standard after leading throughout last outing. He did enjoy the perfect run last time and he might not find the lead so easily here but he is worth thought again. SOFALA (3) worked out of the gate before taking cover and finished off well when a close second at Swan Hill last outing. He should be competitive from his good draw. NIGHT SCHOOL (9) and AMERICAN LEGACY (10) are both dropping back in class and are not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 5,6,7 RATINGS: 6/ 3,5/ 9,10/ 4

Race comment
OVERVIEW: REPELLING (6) trailed the leader MOMENTUM SWING (5), used the sprint lane and just failed to run that pacer down when a narrow second at Cobram then followed with a fifth in a heat of the Central Victorian Championship, where he endured a tough run. He hasn’t had much luck since a Bendigo victory on February 08 and must be included amongst the leading chances. MOMENTUM SWING (5) won a race of similar standard after leading throughout last outing. He did enjoy the perfect run last time and he might not find the lead so easily here but he is worth thought again. SOFALA (3) worked out of the gate before taking cover and finished off well when a close second at Swan Hill last outing. He should be competitive from his good draw. NIGHT SCHOOL (9) and AMERICAN LEGACY (10) are both dropping back in class and are not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 5,6,7 RATINGS: 6/ 3,5/ 9,10/ 4
