PAW FUNK (3) steps out for the first time at this track. Comes here after a last start 4th and beaten 1.5 lengths (24.40) at Bendigo. Should be very hard to beat this time. XATU BALE (5) slotted in just off the lead from the wide draw last start and boxed on to finish third (25.20) at this track in a Grade 5 over 435m. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Bold showing expected. CHASING HEARTS (7) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only a neck from the winner Jumbuk Damien in second(24.81) at this track. Can measure up. KOKODA TRAIL (1) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Comments

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (25.54) in a Grade 5, finishing a 8 length fourth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and three minors. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Last start finished 4th in a Grade 5 on August 29 over 425m at Bendigo behind Forgiveness beaten 1.5 lengths (24.40). Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.

Latest effort finished 3rd in a Grade 5 on August 27 over 435m at this track behind Holly Rose beaten 3.5 lengths (25.20). Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Backs up quickly after winning by one length at Warragul (23.44) beating Be Rugged in a Grade 5 on September 4 three days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.
