Healesville Race 5

Prize Money: $2,925

NEGATIVE NIBBS (8) clocked a quick 19.31 winning over 350m at this track last start in a Grade 6. Expected to push the clock again here. NEED YOU NOW (6) comes here following a placing in strong time (19.30) over 350m at this track. Expecting another bold showing. ASTON LYON (1) goes very well at the course with three wins and a placing from five starts. Missed the frame latest (23.00) when fourth over 400m at Geelong in a Grade 5. Can hit the frame with the right run. LADY PERSIMMON (3) is worth consideration after filling a hole last start.

Lines up from box 1 for the first time after finishing a 8 length fourth at Geelong (23.00) in a Grade 5. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Could manage only fourth last time but impressed the start prior when she recorded a handy 19.33 over 350m finishing second at this track. Can come into calculations at odds.
