Ascot Park Race 8

Mr Whippy Southland Pbd

Prize Money: $2,314

MITCHAM MERCEDES (2) jumped from a middle draw last time and could manage only 5th and beaten 2 lengths (22.87) at this track. Returns to a course where he has performed well. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Worth another chance. GO JOCK (3) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Goldstar Kenzie (22.85) in a Class 1. Took the lead and boxed on but run over. The form out of his last race has been franked. Expected to feature. YUM CHA (5) has a strong winning strike-rate this journey here having won two of four starts. Placed last time (17.61) at Addington in a Class 1, finishing third and beaten 4 lengths. Suited here and expected to run well. Something for the Multiples: MISS MAUDIE (6)

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished eighth on June 19 over 457m at this track behind Diamond Felon, beaten 15 lengths (27.01) in a Class 1. Can't make much of a case this time.

Could only manage fifth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (23.02) over 390m at this track. Drawn out wide but is in the mix.
