Geelong Race 6

Geelong To Sandown (1-4 Wins) Ht2

Prize Money: $2,925

HARD ROW (7) hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 5.5 lengths (25.82) over 460m at Warragul. Has a win and three minor placings from four starts from this draw. Has hit winning form and can go on with it. EXTINCT (3) finds it hard to win but looks close to breaking through. Finished in the minors last time when third (30.04) at Sandown making it back to back placings. Expected to feature. OBLIVIATE (6) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (26.24) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Was a winner at her only start from this draw. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. MOTHER GEORGIA (4) missed the placings when well supported last time – can atone.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 450m at Ballarat. Would be better placed in something easier.

Finds a competitive race but others have stronger credentials. Didn't finish last start. Two back win over 515m at The Gardens. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Latest effort finished 3rd over 515m at Sandown beaten 4 lengths (30.04) behind Weblec Pepper in a Grade 5 on February 23. Has been around the mark at her last couple and should make her presence felt.

Flew the lids with a strong early split and led throughout to score an impressive win by 5.5 lengths over 460m at Warragul (25.82). Looks the one to beat again.
