Kilmore Race 9

Picklebet 'Get Your Pickle On' Pace

Prize Money: $8,000

DEMBE (2) is flying with a hat trick of wins to his name. Worked to the front and went on to salute by 6 metres at Shepparton last week. Faces a class rise this time but another good draw gives him the chance to take that step. HELLOVATIME (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when fourth from a much wider barrier at Echuca. Going well and should enjoy an economical run from this draw. MAAS BETTING AGAIN (3) is a two-time winner at this circuit and distance and is a player off a Melton placing from the second line two back. TOORAM MAGIC (6) is first up for four-and-a-half months but showed some decent form last time in, winning three back at Melton. Can open this campaign with a positive effort.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fourth behind Wotdidusaaay at Echuca over 1755m last start. Before that was beaten 4.5 metres second at Shepparton over 2190m same class on September 15. Big chance to find the winners' list.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 6 m as favourite (Fr3) at Shepparton (2:41.70) beating Ronnie The Hammer in on October 6 at $1.75 at the bell was leading 4.88. Two runs back came from midfield and won by 2.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Shepparton (2:01.40) beating King Saint in on September 29 at $1.80 at the bell was 5th-4.6. A good draw could see him take the next step and add to the winning streak.

Last start 7th (Fr3) over 1609m after showing early speed at Geelong, beaten 20 m by Ollies The Boss (1:54.70) on October 3 at $6.50. Before that, a solid effort when 3rd (Sr4) over 1720m at Melton was 9th-13.79 at the bell, beaten 3 m by Mighty Jolt (2:02.20) on September 26 at $15. Draws well so can bounce back.
