Mildura Race 7

Happy Birthday Al Lister Pace

Stake: $4,320

CRUZ WITH ROME (5) made it two wins from his last four outings a week ago, getting home by 2.75 metres over 2190m at this track. Meets a similar line up so he can keep the ball rolling. ULTIMATE EGO (9) ran sixth last start here over 2190m, beaten 14 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expecting a very good run. LILBITAHENRYTEE (2) is better than his last-start eighth over 2190m at this circuit. Can perform much better from the low draw. SNEAKY PHILTRA (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this venue over 2190m. Top-three commodity.

Didn't do much last time out, 6th (Fr3) over 2190m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 9 m by To The Nines (2:45.30) in NR 40 to 49 on May 16 at $31. Before that was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr5) over 2040m after being wide early at Ouyen was 3rd-4.3 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Our Master Play (2:34.00) in NR 40 to 49 on May 11 at $11. Not keen on his chances in this field.
