Healesville Race 4

Mr Hummer Limos Veterans (250+Rank)

Prize Money: $2,925

FLYING PIE (7) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (24.72) last time in a Special conditions Veteran race at Bendigo. Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Worth another chance. CHOP (1) turned in a fair run last time from an unfavourable draw finishing fourth by 1.75 lengths (19.42). A forward showing wouldn't surprise. BRUTAL POWER (6) struggled to get involved last start after being shuffled back early at this track, but prior to that won easily by 3.5 lengths at this track (16.90) beating Inter Cyborg in a Grade 5 on December 27. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. NIGERIAN KABOOM (2) was a surprise last-start placegetter with solid claims again.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.08) in a Grade 5, finishing a 5 length seventh. Box stats strong with four wins and four placings from nine starts. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Missed the frame latest (25.99) when fourth over 450m at Shepparton in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and three places from 10 starts. Others appear better placed.
