Paua Of Buddy At Stud (1-2 Wins) (275+)

Prize Money: $1,530

WOODY GREY (8) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (23.08) at this track over 400m. Can go on with it. PHOTO FLASH (2) missed the frame latest when seventh at this track (23.89) but scored three back at this track (23.15). Can do much better this time. WALTZING BLASTER (4) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 8th at this track following on from a third place finish (23.33) there the start prior. Has the ability to give this a shake. DODGING SHADOWS (7) can find the frame without surprising.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (23.33) at big odds over 400m at this track. Has a squeeze box to navigate and will need to find best.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 4 length third over 400m this track in 23.08. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.
