Kilmore Race 9

Picklebet 'Get Your Pickle On' Mares Pace

Prize Money: $6,000

FROSTY DROP (1) led from a couple of spots wider and fought on well for second last start at Horsham. Came from this barrier when edged out narrowly at Melton prior. Her hoof is on the till. Can break through here. BLACKINDEED (3) finished in the placings two runs back and again performed admirably last start, making up plenty of ground but finding a couple better at Melton. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position and will be approaching peak fitness now. RAKAROMPA NZ (4) made an encouraging return when he came from the back row and finished runner-up last time out. Fitter and owns a good record here. TRYX VIXEN (5) continued her consistent form with a respectable third at her most recent appearance at Echuca and came from the back row to score at Shepparton prior. Respect.

Freshened-up since the last run 38 days ago. Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m second behind Jilliby Zucchini at Horsham over 1700m last start. Before that was beaten a nose second at Melton over 1720m in M on September 25. Close to a win and gets her chance from the ace draw.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Didn't do much at the last run, was well back in the run when 6th (Fr5) over 2180m at this track beaten 35 m by Billys Tiger Khan (2:39.20) on November 5 at $16. Before that was well back in the run when 5th (Fr4) over 1690m at Shepparton, at the bell was 5th-7.65 beaten 7 m by Yapper (2:03.80) on October 28 at $8.50. Not keen on her chances in this field.
