Prize Money: $2,925

PAW NATULLO (7) lines up chasing another win after scorching around Warrnambool over 390m in 21.98 on March 5. Expected to push the clock again here. PHOENIX RED (3) boasts a strong record this journey here with three wins and three minors from nine tries. Comes off a (22.17) win last time, scoring by 2 lengths in a Grade 5 over 390m at this track. Suited here and expected to run well. SUMO SMASH (2) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Kaluna Chaos (22.37) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Leading player again. ALBORZ GIRL (4) must be respected at her pet distance.

Comments

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 3 length third over 390m at this track, clocking 22.37. Has an outstanding 22.07 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.
