SHE REBEL (2) charged out of the boxes with a strong early split and went straight to the front, scoring an all the way win (25.66) over 450m at Warrnambool. Great chance to get the job done again. THERMAL SPARK (5) is worth forgiving last start after finishing eighth (26.37) from Box 6 at Shepparton over 450m. Great chance to atone. PELICAN'S SUNDAY (1) missed the frame last time but prior to that was an effortless Grade 6 winner (22.22) at Shepparton, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Has the ability and expected to do much better. CANYA KELSEY (7) did a good job to finish third last time out over 400m at Geelong (23.23) in a Grade 5, the second top-three finish on the trot.

Good effort to score just five days ago over 450m at Warrnambool by 4 lengths in a Mix 6/7. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time. Worth following up.

Missed the frame when seventh (26.11) at Ballarat at last run and returns here after a six months break. Looks one of the better hopes in the race.

Comments

Was out of placings last time (23.24) at Ballarat in a Grade 4/5, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths. Has two wins and five placings from 13 starts from the draw. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
