Warragul Race 8

Paua Of Buddy At Stud (275+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

AKINA ROCKY (6) got around the 435m at Sale to take a Grade 5 in a decent 24.51 for a 2.75 lengths success. Can measure up again if runs up to latest time. ELEVATE (8) crossed over from out wide but caught the leaders turning before drawing clear to score (25.75) at Ballarat in a Grade 5 over 450m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Leading chance again. JUMBUK JOZEF (2) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at Traralgon behind Top Kade (20.30) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Comes through a solid form race last start. Hard to beat again. TO PERU (3) missed the placings when well backed last time but cannot be taken lightly.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by half a length at The Meadows (30.66) beating Axel's Radar in a Grade 5 on June 17. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (24.21) over 425m at Traralgon. Aided by a low draw and is among the better hopes.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2.75 lengths over 435m at Sale in a handy 24.51, beating Dr. Axel. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd on June 22 over 425m at Traralgon behind Jumbuk Funi beaten 3 lengths (24.28) in a Grade 5. Likely to find this too tough.
