Healesville Race 9

Jvdm Green Light On Podcast

Prize Money: $3,360

ESPECIAL KAI (2) was the fastest winner on the program last time out, running away to score by 2.25 lengths (18.87) at this track. Looks to have an edge on most of these. LADY GUNAI (1) was in the placings last time but prior to that she ran an exceptional 19.07 win over 350m at this track. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. FROZEN WINTER (3) turned in a good run last time, finishing in the placings (16.42) at this track in a Free For All. Lines up from box 3 for the first time. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Expected to feature. ELECTRA OPAL (7) ran an excellent 16.66 win last time. Not to be underestimated.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4 length fifth (19.14) over 350m at this track. Likely to struggle this time.

Missed the frame latest (23.33) when sixth over 400m at Warragul in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and two places from seven starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
