Bronte Nieuwenburg has outlined her selections and suggested game plan for Thursday's card at Kilmore.
R1 – 5.02pm – Coulter Legal Pace (2nd Heat) – 2180m
2 – Illawong Danny
3 – Redbank Molly
4 – Northern Terror
1 – Precious Belle
Illawong Danny should be quick enough to find a good position, so the race map suits him. He’s been out of the winner’s circle for a while, but his own times have been good. He finds a more suitable race here.
BACK: 2 Illawong Danny – 2 units (win)
R2 – 5.35pm – Styles Construction Pace – 1690m
2 – Star Ruler
8 – Lotakevi
12 – Sports Liner
9 – Freak Out
Lotakevi is a good roughie who’s going better than his form suggests. He may end up three or four back, but if he gets out late, he’s a strong value place chance.
BACK: 8 Lotakevi – 2 units (place)
R3 – 6.05pm – JC Windows 3yo Maiden Pace – 1690m
2 – Atomic Black
3 – Delightful Miki
1 – My Beautiful Life
6 – Yesnoletsgo
R4 – 6.32pm – Hip Pocket Workwear Castlemaine Pace – 2180m
9 – Zenario
10 – Lambro Mach
1 – Wind Sock
5 – Im Wesley
Zenario is first-up this year but ended his two-year-old season with a win in the Southern Cross Listed Classic in South Australia. He’s had time to grow and develop, and recently won a trial at Bendigo. Lambro Mach is a great horse, but I’m sticking with Zenario here.
BACK: 9 Zenario – 2 units (win)
R5 – 7.02pm – Jet Roofing Mares Pace – 2180m
6 – Fiano
3 – Clives Girl
2 – Lochinvar Charm
5 – Evileye
R6 – 7.32pm – Momentum Gaming Pace – 1690m
6 – King Saint
5 – Hurrikane Dusty
8 – Iamawingate
9 – Alta Bayamo
R7 – 8.02pm – O'brien Electrical Maiden Trot – 2180m
5 – The Italian Dream
2 – Jetaway Saint
9 – Gianvito
8 – Aldebaran Sariah
The Italian Dream stormed home first-up last start. With added fitness, she should improve significantly from that run and looks a talented type in the top Chris Svanosio trotting stable.
BACK: 5 The Italian Dream – 2 units (win)
R8 – 8.32pm – Broadstead Kilmore Trot – 2180m
1 – Sista Evarista
2 – Coconut Mickey
4 – Carla Pixie
7 – Exasperation
This looks like a fairly even trotting event, with Sista Evarista benefiting from the barrier draw. There is a concern she could be double or even triple crossed early, but if she holds a forward position, she’ll be right in the finish.
BACK: 1 Sista Evarista – 2 units (win)
R9 – 9.02pm – Tellurian Wines Mares Trot – 1690m
6 – Kinvara Kate
3 – Flyin Time
5 – Majestic Tooth
8 – Dossier
