Warragul Race 10

Rsn Grey Areas Wednesday And Friday

Prize Money: $2,925

SAND DUNES (1) was a winner two back when prominent throughout then got further back last time and could manage only a 5.5 lengths 6th at Sale (24.93). The form out of last race has been strong. Can atone. RHINE STAR (2) had been racing well prior to her last start fifth at Sale following a Grade 5 win three back with a third placing. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. MOTOR CITY ROSSI (8) collided with another runner last time and always well back when fifth (23.23) in a Grade 5 at Mandurah. Worth following up. COUNTY KILDARE (7) is not to be discarded.

Won two starts back over 400m at this track. Last start she finished 6th on August 17 over 435m at Sale behind Daintree Vision beaten 5.5 lengths (24.93) in a Grade 5. Draw likely to suit. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.

Was a winner three back at this track then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fifth (25.04) at Sale. Makes plenty of appeal on best and can easily atone here.

Good effort to win last start by 1.1 lengths over 300m at Healesville in a handy (16.83), beating Head Hunter. Will find this a bit tougher, other runners look much more appealing.
