Warragul Race 4

G'day Chef Caterers

Prize Money: $2,925

BE GRITTY (3) flew the lids from out wide with an impressive turn of foot before finishing second (22.98) and beaten a neck over 400m at this track. Can find winning form. HERBIE (4) caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 1.75 lengths win at this track over 400m in 22.99. Will go close again if runs up to latest. TOUCH MY HAND (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when seventh at this track over 400m behind Aston Chant (23.77) in a T3 Grade 7. Bold showing expected. DR. CALVIN (2) cannot be left out despite coming off a short break. Something for the Multiples: CARRY ON OLIVE (5)

Lines up from box 1 for the first time after finishing a 6 length seventh at this track (23.77) in a T3 Grade 7. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Was a winner three back at Sale then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when sixth (25.23) at Sale. Looks a danger to the top few if returns to best form this time.

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a neck second (22.98) over 400m at this track. Looks a strong winning hope.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 2nd on August 3 over 435m at Sale behind Tornado Tessa beaten 1.75 lengths (24.54) in a Mix 6/7. In the money last time but this is a stern test.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 1.3 lengths at this track (23.11) beating Select Faith in a Maiden on July 29. Solid claims this line-up.
