Warrnambool Race 5

Paddy Wants Pats (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

CRUISING NAT (7) jumped from a squeeze box last start but was quickly into stride and led throughout to score (22.28) at this track in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win over 390m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. ASTON CLEESE (5) missed the frame last time at Bendigo but was in the finish the start prior when fourth (24.50) and goes well this course. Can turn it around this time. SAINT RAINE (1) stalked the speed throughout but took over and ran on to score at big odds in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 (22.54) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Leading player again. SICILY (2) has strong claims after a top-three finish from this box last time out.

Good performance after tracking the speed to win by 0.9 lengths at this track over 390m (22.54) beating Bush Circus in Bottom Up - Grade 5 on February 24. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Placed last time (23.04) at Geelong in a Rank Limit - Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 1.75 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

At the last start finished last over 390m at Ballarat beaten 8 lengths (22.80) behind Eat Your Spinach in a Grade 5 on February 25. Forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on her best form.

Latest effort finished 4th over 425m at Bendigo beaten 4.5 lengths (24.54) behind Louie Cabang in a Grade 5 on February 25. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Didn't make the placings last time at Healesville (17.62) in a Bottom Up - Grade 5, finishing a 9 length fifth. Has two wins and two placings from six starts from the draw. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Good performance to post a big 3.5 lengths win at this track over 390m (22.28) beating Inga Freddy in Bottom Up - Restricted Win on February 24. Form reads well for this.
