Races MRX Mornington

Went forward to sit just off the leaders but served up a below par finish 11.3L at Devonport Tapeta Cl4 Sw over 1350m Synthetic. Was midfield in the running and got past a couple late when sixth 6.1L at Southside Pakenham Bm70 over 1000m Soft 5. Second-up.

Enjoyed a nice run in transit and kicked strongly to hold second at Cranbourne. Got back in the running and made ground without threatening fourth at Pakenham. Placed fresh and trialled well leading into this. The one to beat.

Nicely positioned behind the leaders but failed to finish off 3.8L at Mornington Bm58 over 1200m. Strode to the lead, gave everything, run down late for gutsy fifth 0.7L at Mornington Bm56 over 1200m Soft 5. Has won second-up previously.

Caught the eye storming home for second from back in the field 0.3L at Mornington Bm56 over 1000m Soft 5. Got back in the running and always had a tough task ahead 8.3L at Mornington Cg&E Bm62 over 1200m.

Couldn't gain on the leaders from midfield 3.6L at Sportsbet Sandown Lakeside Bm64 over 1200m Soft 5. Set the tone leading at the 400m but couldn't go with the winner when fifth 7.9L at Southside Pakenham 3Y Bm64 over 1200m Soft 6. Second-up.

Got back and battled to improve positions when sixth 4.2L at Sale Bm64 over 1106m Soft 7. Hardly sighted and under heavy pressure to make ground 9.9L at Apiam Bendigo Bm64 over 1300m Heavy 8. Can win first-up.

Didn't come into the race after settling midfield 7.4L at Seymour F&M Bm64 over 1300m Soft 5. Led and gave all but left nothing left for finish 4.9L at Southside Pakenham Bm62 over 1200m Soft 7. Second-up.

A long way back with 400m to go and did pass a few late into sixth 4.1L at Bairnsdale Bm58 over 1200m Soft 5. Sent forward and gave backers a sight before weakening into sixth 2L at Bairnsdale Bm58 over 1600m Soft 5.

Had a tough task from the start and never a danger beaten at Apiam Bendigo over 1300m. Hit the line hard for second despite finding one better on the day at Moe. Second-up. Runner-up upon resuming and can figure again. Top hope.

Raced behind the leaders and ran on nicely for the runner-up spot 1.8L at Sale Bm64 over 1110m Soft 7. Trailed handy to the leaders, pushed along but run petered out for fifth 5.7L at Sale Bm64 over 1200m.

Found one better over the concluding stages after going forward 0.3L at Mortlake Bm56 over 1100m. Got a long way back in transit and showed best work late when fourth 4L at Kyneton Bm56 over 1215m.

Under extreme pressure to keep pace with the front-runners 9L at Pakenham Bm64 over 1400m Synthetic. Got back worse than midfield and was pushed along to make ground 5L at Sale Bm64 over 1400m Heavy 8. Proven here at this track/distance.

Top third at Bairnsdale Mdn-Sw over 1000m. Held off rivals for a soft win at Dunkeld over 1200m. Can be prominent aided by the claim. Terrific hope.

Had no pace early but once balanced up ran on well for fifth 2.3L at Ballarat F&M Bm62 over 1200m. Nice ride to sit poised to bounce on the leaders but could only trail into third 2.9L at Southside Pakenham Bm62 over 1400m Soft 6. Can't underestimate at this track/distance.

Showed pace to sit with the leaders, fought hard but tired quickly 8.9L at Thomas Farms RC Murray Bridge 0-64 over 1800m. Made up many lengths to grab third after getting back to midfield 0.8L at Mornington Cl1 over 1200m Soft 5. Warrants respect with second-up stats.

Got back in the running and did a great job to finish off hard 1.7L at St Arnaud Bm56 over 1100m. Tried to sustain a long run on the pace but dropped out sharply 4.1L at Penshurst Bm56 over 1284m.
