Maitland Race 7

Ladbrokes Million Dollar Chase Regional Heat 2 H

Prize Money: $3,555

STAR (2) goes very well this trip starting 20 times for seven wins and seven minors. Scored by a nose last time (25.21) in a NG over 450m at Grafton. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. LOCKDOWN (4) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only 0.8 lengths from Hot Shot Ethics in second (22.17) at this track. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Expected to feature again. SEE THIS (8) has a strong record here with two wins and three placings from six starts. Below best last time at this track (22.58) in a NG, finishing a 6 length fifth. Looks one of the chances. RISE UP NISMO (1) has strong credentials over this journey.

Didn't make the placings last time at Wentworth Park (30.83) in a Grade 5, finishing a 15 length eighth. Has one win and eight placings from 10 starts from the draw. Has ability and should be around the money.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Grafton over 450m in 25.21 last start, beating Sandave Ablaze. Top chance again.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 0.8 lengths second at this track but did record an exceptional 22.17 over the 400m journey. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Richmond over 401m in 22.52. Followed that up with a minor placing over 401m at Richmond at NG a week-and-a-half ago. Can't recommend him in this.

Poor last start but ran a better race two back when fourth over 515m at Gosford. Happy to risk this time.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.58) in a NG, finishing a 6 length fifth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
