RURAL CITY OF MURRAY BRIDGE STAKE PR1 Division2

Prize Money: $1,610

GRAND PERFECTION (1) was quickly into stride and burnt early from out wide where she gave a sight, finishing second (22.26) and beaten 1.3 lengths over 395m at this track. Comes through a solid form race last start. Rates highly and will give a great sight. WEBLEC BLOSSOM (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (18.33) in a Grade 6 at Mt Gambier. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Bold showing expected. TAKE THE STEPS (5) is having his first look at this track. Missed the frame last time when 4th and beaten 1.3 lengths (22.44) at Warrnambool. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Leading chance. VELARIS (7) has claims fresh from a recent placing in good time.

Comments

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 1.3 lengths second (22.26) over 395m at this track. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Follow up.

Comments

Finished fourth (22.44) last start at Warrnambool. Prior to that had recorded three minor placings in a row. Tends to run fairly well off the tricky draw but will need the right run to feature.

Comments

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last five starts. Last time out finished 2nd over 400m at Gawler beaten 3.5 lengths (22.60) behind Diogo Keeping in a Grade 5 on March 8. Others make more appeal.
