ARARAT 14/08/21
Trial 1: - THELONGROADNOWHERE showed a liking to the Mildura circuit with a win and a second on that track in June. He finished ninth at Hamilton at his latest race track appearance but would have gained some confidence with a trial victory over CAESARION, which has been promising his maiden success for some time with fourteen placed efforts to his credit.

She finished a distant third on her way to competing at Bendigo tonight with the lightly raced SWEETSAZZYMYLAZZY being the last one to complete the course.
Mile Rate: - 2.2.8 Last Half: - 60.6 Margins: - 20m, 2m

Mile Rate: - 2.6.0 Last Half: - 59.6 Margins: - 1m, 2m
Trial 6: - WHOS COUNTN settled three back on the markers, moved up without cover at the 500m and was able to score nicely.

He came away from the inside at the 500m, dropped in behind the leader on the turn and extricated to the outside again in the straight. He was able to run home best and get the prize. It would have given him plenty of confidence for his effort at Cranbourne on Sunday.

Mile Rate: - 2.4.6 Last Half: - 56.8 Margins: - 1.5m, 1m
Trial 5: - SUPREME DOMINATOR settled three back on the inside, used the sprint lane and cruised to the line to win effortlessly. He is right at his peak at the moment and should continue his good form at the races. THE WHOLE PACKAGE began quickly to find the lead and kicked on strongly at the end to finish second. He has drawn on the pole position at Melton on Tuesday so he not without a chance. MAJOR HALL was behind the leader for the majority of the trial before coming to the outside at the 300m mark. He finished third with HEZACROCWATCHER being fourth after leaving the markers and trying to make ground from last at the 600m. SMITHSTARS LEXUS was four back on the inside throughout and was the last one to reach the winning post.
