Mandurah Race 9

Tommy Shelby @ Stud

Prize Money: $2,390

SASSY LAD (1) missed the frame last time after colliding with another runner in a Grade 5 at this track, finishing a 9 length seventh (28.17). Little luck latest and can bounce back to best. LET ME COOK (3) goes very well this course and distance starting 18 times for seven wins and seven minors. Recorded a one length win (22.42) in a Grade 4/5 last time at this track. Looks well placed here and among the chances. WEST ON CADDY (6) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (22.95) last time in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to his name from five starts. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. ASTON WALKER (5) will be hard to beat with a drop in trip.

Showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 400m in 22.42, claiming a Grade 4/5 by one length. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in that last win. Stay with her.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 400m at this track. Other runners look much more appealing.

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (30.46) over 525m at The Meadows. Tough draw to overcome and will need the breaks to go his way.

Comments

Found the going tougher last start when second over 300m at this track. That followed a win two back in 17.29 beating Incredible Mouse over 300m at this track. Prefer in something easier.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
