Traralgon Race 13

Prize Money: $2,925

OPAWA ELVIS (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (17.32) at Addington over 295m. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Key player if finds best. ZIPPING MARIE (3) had a wide draw last time when running fourth (23.04) over 400m at Geelong in a Grade 5. Has the ability to give this a shake. BE MY TIGER (8) has a solid strike rate at this distance. Something for the Multiples: WORDS (9)

Lines up from box 1 for the first time after finishing a 4.5 lengths sixth at Addington (17.32) in a Class 5. Looks suited and should go close.

Missed the frame latest (22.54) when seventh over 390m at Shepparton in a Mix 3/4. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and four places from 12 starts. Can feature in the finish.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 400m at Warragul. Hard to entertain this time.
