Shortest win price
Skydream (7)
2.80
Welcome to Geelong for race six on the card, the Auswide Plumbing And Civil (Bm62) over 1535m. The track is rated a good four with overcast skies above, and the win market has Skydream sitting at the head of affairs, closely followed by Positivo, Lygon Street Luigi, and Grandpa Neil in the early betting order.
The numbers say Skydream rates a real chance here after showing plenty of early dash previously. Dean Yendall takes the steer from barrier six, and the stable runner comes into this off a Kilmore run where things got tough late after leading. Positivo jumps off the page as another major threat for Saab Hasan and Michael Dee, carrying strong recent form all the way from Wangaratta where this backmarker reeled in the leaders to salute in fine style.
Looking deeper into the field, Grandpa Neil brings a big tick from a recent Warrnambool victory where Teodore Nugent was aboard, and that hot jockey and trainer combination is outperforming market expectations significantly. Skydream is marked as fast early alongside Frosty Night, so expect them to roll forward from their respective gates and make a genuine contest of it over the 1535m journey.

Narrow success in a handicap dropped back in distance (Swan Hill) two weeks ago; warrants respect.

Long losing streak. Fair way from the winner but battled home into third at Ballarat. This looks a deeper race.
ILB
Ran 3rd last time at Ballarat on a heavy rated track and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Major chance.
RP
Out of the frame (beaten 4½l in third) at Ballarat over 7f (handicap) last week; has been fairly consistent of late; generally struggled with a record of 1-31; passed over as hits the crossbar all too often.
RSIS
Ran well when 3rd last run at Ballarat and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Winning potential.

ILB
Was eating up the ground late when winning last run at Wangaratta and can find a nice position from the draw. Will be hitting the line strongly. Must be considered here.
RP
Scored by a slim margin in a handicap at Wangaratta two weeks ago; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role despite that win at Wangaratta.
RSIS
Ran on hard when winning last run at Wangaratta and drawn nicely. Can go through the gears. On an upward trajectory in recent races. Taking on stronger opponents. Definite claims.

Jumped at $9.00 and came in 6th last time at Morphettville. Expected to rebound. Has the ratings to win this.
RP
Fair effort when beaten 3½l, finishing sixth of 12 at Morphettville 13 days ago; some claims if replicating best previous efforts.
RSIS
At 8/1 finished 6th last start at Morphettville. Happy to forgive that run. Very tidy performer.

Ran on okay without troubling at Echuca. Not fancied.

Fair effort when beaten 1½l over 7f at Echuca (handicap) three weeks ago; a few rivals look in good form so unlikely to do better than a supporting role.
RSIS
Started at 8/1 and got going late when 4th last time at Echuca but up against stronger rivals.

Freshened. Led them up but melted under pressure at Kilmore. Can make her presence felt.
ILB
At $1.40 lost momentum late when 4th last time at Kilmore but facing a stronger grade. Will appreciate the drop in weight. Betting is the best guide.
RP
Only finished fourth of nine despite odds of 2-5 over 7f at Kilmore (handicap) last month; shown recent signs of improvement; this just her second run in a handicap; facing a testing assignment and looks an unlikely winner.
RSIS
Started at 2/5 and didn't finish off when 4th last run at Kilmore but facing formidable opponents. Gets some weight taken off. Watch betting.

Was held in sixth over 1m1f at Kyneton (handicap) last Wednesday; has found improvement of late; winner two starts ago and should not be ruled out.
