Maitland Race 5

Shipley Meats Dogs Only Final F

Prize Money: $2,335

OCCULENT (6) was well backed last start but ran below expectations when fourth (23.33), beaten 1.75 lengths. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. GRAND FORTE (1) quickly away to win over the 400m at The Gardens two runs back then prominent throughout when finishing third at this track last start. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Expected to feature again. MYTHIC (2) charged out of the inside draw with a fast early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (22.78) at this track over 400m. In the mix. DESPICABLE PEDRO (3) placed last time out so worth considering.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (22.78) at this track over 400m. Speedy conveyance who looks hard to beat.

Hit the frame at Richmond Straight last time when a 1.3 lengths third but did record a slick 17.61 over the 324m trip. Can slot into the minors again.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 400m (22.70) beating Occulent in Grade 5 on July 20. Should be around the mark.

Finished third at big odds last time (22.77) over 400m at this track. Drawn awkwardly. Has to do a bit more.

Strong performance leading throughout to score by 2.5 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a convincing 22.34 over the 400m journey. Harder here but warrants respect on latest.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
