Healesville Race 1

Jason Mckeown Photography

Prize Money: $2,925

ESPECIAL HUGO (1) promising type who notched his 1st career success when too good (25.50) at Shepparton last time. Tends to go well off this box draw. Has the inside draw and looks tough to beat here. RONALDO JACK (8) was quickly into stride on debut to score by 0.8 lengths (16.85) at this track over 300m. Boxed wide but has the pace to be prominent. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. ASTON ROCHELLE (7) is better than last start when seventh (24.99) in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win at Sale over 435m. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Shapes as one to consider. ELEVENTH SCOTCH (2) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.

Resumes from a break and did win only other start when fresh which was on debut, scoring over 450m at Shepparton. Makes plenty of appeal fresh.

Was out of the placings last time at Warragul but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching six minors in a row. Boxed out wide and looks tested this line up.

Missed the frame last start when a 6 length seventh (24.99) at Sale. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Looks a definite winning chance on best and given another chance.

Made debut this course and distance and immediately off the mark, scoring a 0.8 lengths win in 16.85. Returned in great order and can make it back to back wins.

Won two starts back at Bendigo over 425m in 24.17. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when seventh over 425m at Bendigo at Mix 6/7 level. Last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.
