OVERVIEW: RUBY WINGATE (1) will appreciate her best draw for some time and should prove hard to beat under these conditions. She met the very smart pacer Sao Paulo Simba when fifth at Geelong last outing and she was a winner against similar opposition at Melton on December 07. MICHEN ROY (8) uncharacteristically missed the start and lost his chance when unplaced at Geelong last week. He was runner up at Kilmore prior and has the perfect trailing draw behind RUBY WINGATE (1) so he rates as a value chance. OUR BELLA LUCIA (5) is shooting for three straight victories at Kilmore and is a strong chance of completing the task. She sustained a flat tyre but was still able to hold off her rivals last outing. SKIP TO ME LOU (7) is resuming since February 2024 but he has been placed in two recent Melton trial performances and he showed a lot of promise during his last campaign of racing. He is widely drawn but must be kept safe. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 1/ 5,8/ 7/ 3

Race comment
OVERVIEW: RUBY WINGATE (1) will appreciate her best draw for some time and should prove hard to beat under these conditions. She met the very smart pacer Sao Paulo Simba when fifth at Geelong last outing and she was a winner against similar opposition at Melton on December 07. MICHEN ROY (8) uncharacteristically missed the start and lost his chance when unplaced at Geelong last week. He was runner up at Kilmore prior and has the perfect trailing draw behind RUBY WINGATE (1) so he rates as a value chance. OUR BELLA LUCIA (5) is shooting for three straight victories at Kilmore and is a strong chance of completing the task. She sustained a flat tyre but was still able to hold off her rivals last outing. SKIP TO ME LOU (7) is resuming since February 2024 but he has been placed in two recent Melton trial performances and he showed a lot of promise during his last campaign of racing. He is widely drawn but must be kept safe. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 1/ 5,8/ 7/ 3

He was runner up at Kilmore prior and has the perfect trailing draw behind RUBY WINGATE (1) so he rates as a value chance. OUR BELLA LUCIA (5) is shooting for three straight victories at Kilmore and is a strong chance of completing the task. She sustained a flat tyre but was still able to hold off her rivals last outing. SKIP TO ME LOU (7) is resuming since February 2024 but he has been placed in two recent Melton trial performances and he showed a lot of promise during his last campaign of racing. He is widely drawn but must be kept safe. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 1/ 5,8/ 7/ 3
