Healesville Race 10

PROUD MARY (5) is progressing well scoring last time out (16.92) at this track and bringing up her 2nd career win. Strike rate this course and distance strong having won two of four tries. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. CLASSIC HOUDINI (3) had a low draw last time over 400m at Warragul but was in traffic and fell. May be worth another try. ASTON FRANCESCA (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (24.64) at Bendigo behind Strop in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Leading player again. RUMOUR I'M BROKE (8) cannot be left out over a shorter journey.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 3rd over 425m at Bendigo beaten 6 lengths (24.64) behind Strop in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win on March 14. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Could only manage fifth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (17.25) over 300m at this track. Aided by a low draw and capable of a better result.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording three placings in a row, before finishing eighth (23.99) at Warragul last start. Has a wide draw to navigate and will need to find best.
