Q1 Lakeside Race 3

Greyhounds Make Great Pets Maiden H

Prize Money: $2,400

BALANCE THE TILL (1) was below best last time but prior to that was narrowly beaten when fourth (20.05) in a Maiden at this track. Better than last run and makes appeal this time. POOKIE BEAR (3) is yet to break through in six starts but has run a number of placings. Although beaten into second last time was on pace and game in defeat finishing close to the winner. Well-placed to take this out. TUNGSTEN (2) settled well back early on debut and always towards the tail to finish sixth (17.11) at Q Straight over 300m. Can do far better this time. LAKODA JILL (6) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Is a six start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when second (19.99) over 352m at this track. Was prominent most of the way and only faded late. Great chance to break through.

Yet to break through in 33 runs, the latest effort a third over 390m at this track in 22.24. Rarely out of the placings off this draw. Capable of getting off the mark.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (17.29) at big odds over 300m at Q Straight. Tough draw to overcome but is worth plenty of thought.
