Healesville Race 2

Gap Veterans (275+Rank)

Prize Money: $2,925

SAILPLANE (3) was game in defeat off the inside draw last start, finishing third and beaten a neck (19.79) behind One Knee Noni at this track. Comes through a solid form race last start. Expected to be in the finish again. HAPPY BUDDHA (7) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by a neck at Shepparton in a handy 22.58 beating Morning Daisy. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. TROPIC MAN (4) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

Last start finished 3rd on May 3 over 350m at this track behind One Knee Noni beaten a neck (19.79) in a Special conditions Veteran race. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Missed the frame latest (22.97) when sixth over 400m at Warragul in a Special conditions Veteran race. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and four places from 11 starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 22.58 with a neck win at Shepparton over 390m. Can make it two on the bounce.

Placed last time (23.01) at Warragul in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 5 lengths. Yet to miss the frame from eight starts from the draw, including five wins. Looks a place chance at best.
