Mandurah Race 2

Thursdays At Mandurah

Prize Money: $2,074

HAPPY BUT POOR (7) proved too good last time out claiming her maiden success at this track over 300m (17.40). Well placed and can measure up. BELIEVE IN DREAM (1) started long odds but took maiden two back then finished a 3.5 lengths fourth last start at this track over 300m (17.53). Back to track where she won her maiden. Can improve sharply here. ELLE'S BELLA (4) missed the frame last time but had been racing well prior to that, winning a Novice race three back before a placing at this track the following run. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. ILLUSIVE FLASH (2) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 3.5 lengths fourth (17.53) over 300m at this track. Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Ran a better race when second behind Stubborn George at this track last start over 300m (17.70). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Backs up after winning by 0.8 lengths at this track (17.65) beating Two Broke Mates in a Novice race on October 24 six days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.

Good performance to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 300m (17.40) beating Champagne Cathy in Maiden on October 23. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
