Healesville Race 5

Ride For Lucy (2-3 Wins)

Prize Money: $1,530

FOXY FRECKLES (1) made light work of a wide draw last time with a strong early sectional and clocking 17.00 in a half a length win at this track over 300m. Form reads well for this. BLAME ESMERALDA (2) placed in a T3 Grade 6 when a 0.8 lengths second this course and distance last time in a personal Best Time (19.53) and also clocked one of the quickest times on the card. Top run latest and rates a key player again. CHEWBACCA (6) scored last time and appeals as a top-three prospect. Something for the Multiples: WESTERN FEEL (5)

Flew the lids with a fast early split and went on to clock 17.00 when a half a length winner over 300m at this track. Can make it two on the bounce.

Jumped well at this track two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at this track last start over 350m from this same draw. Although unsuccessful last time still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with her.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 350m at this track. Will not find this easy. Not keen.

Backs up quickly after winning by 1.3 lengths at Ballarat (22.65) beating Holtorf Bale in a Grade 5 on December 24 three days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.

Good effort to win last start by 2.5 lengths over 350m at this track in a handy (19.60), beating Soda Diesel. This appears within his reach.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 3.5 lengths fourth (19.90) over 350m at this track. Prepared to risk this time.
