Warragul Race 7

Prize Money: $2,925

PAW TARKOV (4) latest effort finished 3rd on June 30 over 460m at this track behind Paw Orenthal beaten 4 lengths (26.34) in a Grade 5. Suited here and can find winning form. HERE COMES JOJO (6) has been out of the placings at her last two outings but shapes well for this if she can recapture her exceptional win a few runs back, getting around this track over 460m in 25.61. Has the ability and can find winning form again. PEPPER PIE (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (30.42) last time in a Grade 5 at Sandown. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. Must be included in calculations. SPRING ESPRESSO (7) hit the frame here last start and can sneak into the finish again.

In the money last time at Ballarat (22.27) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3.5 lengths third. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minors. Will need some luck to feature.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording three placings in a row, before finishing fifth (30.42) at Sandown last start. Drawn a inside box but prefer each-way.

Missed the frame latest (30.68) when fourth over 525m at The Meadows in a Grade 5 H. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Hit the frame latest (26.34) when third at this track in a Grade 5. Has three wins and three placings from 10 starts from the draw. Looks suited and should go close.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd in a Restricted WIN on June 30 over 460m at this track behind Lakeview Cindy beaten 8 lengths (26.43). In the minors two starts back. Winning chance on best form.

Good effort to win last start by 0.8 lengths over 450m at Shepparton in a handy (25.59), beating Big Big Bear. Will find this a bit tougher, can't enthuse on this occasion.
