Warrnambool Race 6

Silver Brute At Stud

Prize Money: $2,925

PAW DROGO (6) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (30.96) last time in a Grade 5 at The Meadows. Key runner on his best form. PAW WELKES (4) is a smart beginner who has shown good improvement at his last two starts, breaking through last time at Ballarat over 450m. Leading player again. HURRICANE BERT (8) turned in a modest effort most recently when seventh at Shepparton over 450m behind Paw Monet (25.75) in a Grade 5 H. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from three starts. Must be included in calculations. NOAH'S BEST (7) collected a minor prize last start and must be considered.

Has finished sixth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 6 lengths behind Lassard over 450m. Others make more appeal.

Did a good job two starts back at Bendigo to win by 2.25 lengths in 24.32, beating Cornhill Raven. Last start finished 5th over 460m at Geelong beaten 3.5 lengths (26.22) behind Kiwi Henry in a Grade 5 on February 27. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Placed only run here over this trip. Latest effort finished 4th on March 7 over 525m at The Meadows behind Paw Matic beaten 11 lengths (30.96) in a Grade 5. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.
