Grafton Race 6

Valley Protective Services 5Th Grade Heat 1 H

Prize Money: $2,335

REMI NATH (4) turned spotting a big start finishing seventh (28.35) last time in a Grade 5 at Casino. The form out of her last race has been franked. Can make amends. OPHIDIAN (2) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 1.5 lengths at this track in a handy 20.22 beating Noir Ripple. Likely to be in the finish. CALL TO ARMS (7) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (20.59) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. SYMI SURTEE (8) is worth consideration after filling a hole at big odds last start.

Lines up from box 4 for the first time after finishing a 6 length seventh at Casino (28.35) in a Grade 5. Looks a leading chance.
