Bronte Nieuwenburg has outlined her selections and suggested game plan for Wednesday's meeting at Mildura.

R1 – 6.17pm – Club Aquarius Supports Teal Pace – 1790m

9 – Powersofpersuasion

1 – United

8 – Rio Rock

5 – Prioritise

Powersofpersuasion is returning from a spell, last seen 78 days ago. He was in winning form before his break, and the times he was running in his last preparation were notably faster than those of the rest of this field. If he doesn’t get shuffled too far back, he has a big chance of winning first up.

NOTE - Gear Added: Hopples - Length 59 lengthened from 56, Shoes - Front, Shoes – Hind

BACK: 9 Powersofpersuasion – 2 units (win)


R2 – 6.47pm – Verde At The Gateway Supports Teal Pace – 2190m

4 – Tough Aint Enough

8 – Noble Trick

2 – Corzan Drama

7 – Terror The Christian

Tough Aint Enough has finished in the top three in all seven of his starts. He is lightly raced and is likely to improve again this preparation. He hasn’t shown great gate speed, so he will be relying on luck to get into a handy position. Regardless, he looks to be the class runner in this event.

BACK: 9 Tough Aint Enough – 2 units (win) / 1 unit (place)


R3 – 7.13pm – McDonalds Irymple And Mildura Supports Teal Pace – 2190m

6 – Ultimate Rocker

8 – Ozzie Daybreak

1 – Rimu Valley

9 – Letsgo Big Girl


R4 –7.45pm – Jade Benham Supports Teal Pace – 2190m

3 – Barack Enobrac

8 – Our Master Play

7 – Martha Lavinia

6 – Sunshine Warrior


R5 – 8.10pm – Happy 70th Birthday Ross Weightman Pace – 2190m

8 – Mariahs Shadow

7 – Cruz With Rome

2 – Unethical

6 – Rainbow Rain

Although she’s been out of the winner's circle since November last year, Mariah's Shadow has been performing sectionally better than this field. She’s third up since moving to the Naomi Kerr stable, and from barrier eight, she is following out Hes a Modern Boy, who is a gate-speed runner, so she’s likely to get into a handy position early. This looks to be her race to win.

BACK: 9 Mariahs Shadow – 3 units (win)


R6 – 8.37pm – Club Merbein Supports Teal Pace – 2190m

1 – Oh Sweet Creature

7 – Hesastar

5 – Spring Delight

10 – Image Of Starzzz

Oh Sweet Creature is first up for Aaron Coad, and he’s drawn the golden barrier of one here at Mildura. Glenlea Hanover, drawn outside him, has great gate speed, so he may be worse than three back on the fence. He shouldn’t have to work too hard early, and with a change of scenery, he may find himself back in the winner's circle here.

Gear change:

Gear Added: Bit - Snaffle

Gear Removed: Bit - Lugging, Neck Strap

BACK: 1 Oh Sweet Creature – 2 units (win)


R7 – 9.04pm – Zilzie Wines Supports Teal Pace – 2190m

6 – Cheers Poverty

10 – Glitzy All Over

7 – Better Blue Boys

2 – Orama


R8 – 9.30pm – Happy 43rd Birthday Matt Sim Pace – 2190m

11 – Dark Sands

3 – Beartastic Writer

6 – Robert Crocka

1 – Four Mens Folly


R9 – 10.05pm – Park Douglas Printing Supports Teal Maiden Pace – 1790m

1 – Mustang Daisy

2 – Nanna Helen

8 – Alienfromarmstrong

5 – Diamond Krusher
