Maryborough Race 3

Aldebaran Park Trot

Prize Money: $6,000

HILLWINSOME (6) put the writing on the wall with back-to-back placings then got the win he deserved last time out at Geelong, arriving 4 metres ahead of the runner-up. Draws wider but could back that up. JUST ABIT DUSTY (4) had enough speed to lead from a couple of spots wider then stuck on for third last start at Hamilton. Capable of playing a major role again. LA VOLONTE (8) continues a run of second row draws but came from there when he won fresh at this circuit four back. Should enjoy a pretty soft run from this barrier, with the sprint lane in play. Can be competitive. ATABOY CHARLIE (2) draws well and is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at Stawell.

Last start was well beaten after breaking at Shepparton on February 4. Two runs back 7th (Sr3) over 2240m at Melton beaten 40 m by I Dream Of Millie (2:51.20) in 4yo No NR on September 20 at $17. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Improver.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Poppy Popstar at Birchip over 2150m in a NR up to 51 on March 9 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Mattyo at Stawell over 2180m in a No NR on March 19 at $23. In the mix.

Good run when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind My High Peak at Ballarat over 2200m in a NR 45 to 50 on February 6 at $6. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after showing early speed, behind Blackrange Glory at Hamilton over 2160m in a NR up to 49 on March 26 at $3.20. Could be hard to beat.
