Warrnambool Race 12

One More Race To Go (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

SAINT XAVIER (5) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (22.94) in a Grade 5 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Has ability and can bounce back. WAIRUA'S WAY (8) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (23.20) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. SAINT JADE (4) comes off an average run last start when sixth at this track over 390m behind Step On Air (23.14) in a Grade 5. The form out of last race has been strong. Warrants plenty of respect. SUBTLE KNOCK (1) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.
