Richmond Race 9

Poolwerx Richmond Kurrajong 1-2 Win

Prize Money: $3,235

FAST THINKER (7) is a progressive type who recorded his 2nd career win last time out (29.76) at this track. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Looks the testing material. SPRING HENRY (1) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (30.35) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Key player if finds best. WINSOME WILLY (8) below best last time at this track (23.16) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths fifth. Among the main chances. PLATINUM IRIS (5) did the right thing for favourite backers last time and another big run is on the cards.

Missed the frame last start when fourth and beaten 8 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.

Strong performance to post a big 4.5 lengths win at this track over 520m (29.76) beating Tommy Blue in Mix on August 19. Won at his only start from this box. Top chance to make it two from two.
