Prize Money: $2,335

SCOTCH BLASTER (8) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 0.8 lengths second (22.10) in a Restricted WIN at Q Lakeside. Expected to feature in the finish again. RUSTY ACES (1) recorded his best time this course and distance latest, finishing a 2 length third behind Cash Riot in 20.18. Should be in this for a long way. LUMIERE (5) racing well without winning, placing at his last five runs. Last time finished 3rd over 350m at this track beaten 0.8 lengths (20.23) behind Whispering Sally in a Grade 5 on July 31. Won at his only start from this box. Can feature again. JAY SANDS (2) was unplaced here last start but gets her chance to atone.

Comments

Racing well without winning, recording five minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when third (20.18) over 350m at this track. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.
