Healesville Race 1

Jason Mckeown Photography

Prize Money: $1,530

TAKE A IRIS (5) has an honest record despite remaining a maiden and overdue for a win, having placed five of 12 career runs. Rates on top in this line up. MAGIC THRILL (6) was below best at his last start when 6th at this track following a third place finish (17.14) there two back. Should be about the mark. ZIPPING DUFFIN (4) had second look this course and distance latest and improved on her time, finishing a 0.8 lengths second in 17.23. Should be in this for a long way. TAKE A VIOLET (1) is worth consideration after filling a hole at this course and distance last start.

Returns from a six months break and only other fresh up run was on debut when placed over 300m at this track. Looks a solid contender.

Has ability but remains a maiden after 12 starts, the most recent effort a fifth (20.32) over 350m at this track. Looks a key chance this line-up.
