Canberra Race 1

Av Stone Marble & Granite 2yo Pace

Prize Money: $11,832

LETSBEALILCREATIVE (1) lines up for the first time. By Be Happy Mach and hails from the Jake Stockton stable. Has the benefit of a good draw. Showed some ability when a minor placegetter in a recent trial. Makes plenty of appeal. MY SHIRAZ (5) ran fifth last start at Riverina Paceway over 1740m, beaten 8 metres. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. BE BETTER (7) will find this easier than recent attempts. Draws for a trail and is dangerous if he get the gaps. SHELBY ART (4) is on the radar after her last-start sixth over 1710m at Goulburn two weeks ago.

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 5th (Fr3) over 1740m after showing early speed at Riverina Paceway, beaten 8 m by Plutophobia (2:02.60) in 2yo on October 23 at $61. Before that, a game effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr6) over 1710m at Goulburn was 2nd-3.6 at the bell, beaten 15 m by Start Cheering (2:03.90) in 2yo on October 19 at $6. Sure to play a major role.

Two-year-old colt lining up for the second time. At debut was well beaten after breaking at this track on October 12. This looks too tough.
