Prize Money: $2,925

PAW OLYMPUS (4) lines up chasing another win after sizzling around Warrnambool over 390m in 21.95 on August 13. Smart win latest and looks a key chance again here. OLD HABITS (6) caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 2.75 lengths win at this track over 400m in 23.05. Capable of going well again. URBAN BITES (8) stuck on well last time to finish 1.2 lengths back in third (20.45) at Traralgon in a Grade 5 over 350m. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Bold showing expected. MINH TEDDY (1) must be respected at his pet distance.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a sixth over 400m at this track. Can't recommend in this field.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split and went on to clock 21.95 when a 2 length winner over 390m at Warrnambool. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Good effort to score just five days ago over 400m at this track by 2.75 lengths in a Grade 5. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Good effort last time when third (20.45) over 350m at Traralgon. Jumps from the outside. One of the better hopes.
