275Mtrs (D2)

Prize Money: $513

SKYWALKER TINO (3) scored a one length win (17.64) latest, claiming a D2 over 275m at this track and draws the same trap this time. Has the ability and expected to go close again. CUSHIE ARNIE (5) could manage only third but ran speedy time (17.32) at this track over 275m. Harder here but expected to feature again. BALLINABOLA ZOEY (1) quickly into stride to win over the 275m at this track two runs back then settled forward again when finishing third at this track last start. Expected to be in this for a long way. TASTY CHOICE (2) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to turn the form around.

Turned in a better effort over 275m at this track last start, finishing third behind Shackelton Ace in a D1. Has run hot time here with a 16.78 PB at the distance. Key chance.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 275m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.
