Geelong (H) Race 7

Green Space Storage Pace (1St Heat)

Prize Money: $6,000

THE ART OF SUCCESS (5) hasn't raced since an easy Kilmore win on debut close to a year ago but is likely to have developed with maturity and was readied for her return with a trial win. In a top yard and should be ready to go. KEAYANG SWEETHEART (3) is another that went to the paddock after a debut win seven months ago. Looked good in an easy trial win and draws well so could open the campaign with a win. IM THE REASON (1) had been racing well before landing a last-start win by a head at Melton. The inside draw can see him competitive again. ANOTHER WOODS (2) is lightly raced and progressive and draws much better than when placed last time.

Recent efforts have been impressive. Last start by a head after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Melton (2:05.30) beating Davolas Legacy in 0-2 WINS on March 6 at $15 at the bell was leading 4.12. Drawn to advantage and expected to go well again.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Out To Stay at Hamilton over 1660m in a 0-2 WINS on February 23 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Pretty Basic at Terang over 2180m in a 0-1 WIN on March 2 at $34. Can make his presence felt from a low draw.

Four-year-old mare facing the starter for the second time. Won at debut when on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a head as favourite (Fr1) held up early, at Terang (2:47.30) beating Harbour Springs in MAIDEN on August 4 at $1.20 at the bell was 3rd-4.2m on the pegs. Looks talented and could go through her grades this time in.

Four-year-old mare lining up for the second time. Won at debut when a big 13 m win as favourite hunging in on scoring up, when quickly away, (Fr2) at Kilmore (2:03.10) beating Sandsting in 3yo+ MAIDEN on March 27 at $1.12 at the bell was leading 5m on the pegs. Rates highly. In a top yard and may pay to stick with her.
