Healesville Race 9

Montrose Iga Liquor

Prize Money: $3,360

CRACKERJACK MATT (3) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in five starts, including four wins. In the money last time at Ballarat (22.08) in a Free For All, finishing a 2.25 lengths second. Looks suited and should go close. LADY GUNAI (2) was below best at her last start when 6th at Geelong following a third place finish (22.70) there two back. Has a good record here at this journey. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Should be about the money. DIAMANTINA PEAR (1) broke from the inside draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only one length (16.45) behind Michigan at this track. Her last run is a proven strong form reference. Deserves a win and gets her chance. KNEE DEEP (6) is one of the chances after collecting a minor prize last time.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a one length third (16.45) over 300m at this track and making it two placings on end. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Well supported here last start but failed to deliver, finishing finished 6th on April 3 over 400m at Geelong behind Mr. Kia Ora beaten 6 lengths (23.29) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at Geelong. Has clocked a scorching 16.41 here at this trip. Leading player.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 350m. Last start finished 2nd in a Free For All on April 1 over 390m at Ballarat behind Croydon beaten 2.25 lengths (22.08). Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this draw. Sure to go well.

Was out of placings last time (17.10) at this track in a Free For All, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a neck second over 300m this track in 16.76. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Worth including.

Eye-catching performance to score by 1.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 last start at this track, clocking a slick 16.77 over the 300m trip. Should be in this for a long way.
