Sportsbet (1-6 Wins) Ht2

Prize Money: $3,940

MEPUNGA ZIRCON (3) had been racing well with a Grade 5 H win three back then placed next time before missing the frame latest at Sandown. Can turn form around here. MIGHTY MULTI (1) is rarely far away but tends to find one better, placing 12 from 21 starts. Has hit the frame the last two runs, the latest when third (34.88) at Sandown. Winning chance. MARRAKESH (8) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fifth (30.39) from Box 1 at this track over 525m. Better than last start and can bounce back. VICTORY BARRY (2) looks an each-way chance.

Latest effort finished 3rd in a Grade 5 on January 6 over 595m at Sandown behind Jazzy Hope beaten 9 lengths (34.88). More than capable and well placed to find his best form.

Good effort last time when third (31.60) over 545m at Ballarat. Drawn close to the inside. One of the better hopes.

Missed the frame last start when a 14 length fourth (30.27) at Sandown. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.

Surprised two starts back at Sandown to win by 1.5 lengths in 34.92, beating Assume Floppy. Last start finished 4th in a Grade 5 on January 6 over 595m at Sandown behind Jazzy Hope beaten 11 lengths (35.05). Looking to others this time.

Missed the frame latest (34.50) when fifth over 595m at Sandown in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and four places from 12 starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.
