HEAD HUNTER (8) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Bravado (16.80) in a Grade 5. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Key chance in this line up. GREYSYND MERLIN (7) was a slick 16.70 winner of a Grade 5 at this track last start. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. BONE SHAKER (6) jumped well from this draw last time and was prominent throughout before moving up to score (22.32) at Ballarat over 390m in a Grade 5. Must include in calculations. SCENIC COURT (2) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Comments

Showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 300m in 16.82, claiming a Grade 5 by a long neck. In form and is right in the mix again.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (17.01) over 300m at this track. Aided by a low draw and capable of a better result.

Comments

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 1.4 lengths fifth (16.82) over 300m at this track. Likely to struggle this time.

Won two starts back at this track over 300m in 17.04. Followed that up with a minor placing over 390m at Shepparton at Grade 5 a week-and-a-half ago. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.

Good effort to score just six days ago over 390m at Ballarat by half a length in a Grade 5. Can make it two on the bounce.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (16.80) at this track over 300m. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Follow up.
