Race 7

Prize Money: $662

LAVA KING (1) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a 4.5 lengths winner of an A9 at this track over 500m (30.33). Stiffer grade this time but hard to knock latest effort. Stick with him. INZANE SASHA (2) failed to feature last start after losing her position early at this track, but prior to that won by 0.8 lengths at this track (30.11) beating LAVA KING in an A9 on April 24. Shapes as one to consider. CARAMELS CREAM (4) followed a moderate fourth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 9 lengths, in an A6 at this track over 500m (31.03). This easier and can improve sharply. DROOPYS FERVOUR (5) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can turn the form around.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into third over 285m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.
