Ladbrokes Million Dollar Chase Regional Heat 2 H

Prize Money: $3,555

SCOOTIN' SCOOBY (2) posted a decent 30.44 when placed over 527m at this track last start in a NG. Expected to push the clock again here. SWIFT BREE (7) boasts a strong record this journey here with five wins and three minors from 14 tries. Hit the frame latest (30.68) when third at this track in a NG. Can feature with the right run. ZIPPING VIPER (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when sixth at The Gardens over 600m behind Speedy Zipper (35.48) in a Grade 5. Has ability and can atone. URBAN BOY (8) should be thereabouts.

Didn't make the placings last time at The Gardens (35.48) in a Grade 5, finishing a 15 length sixth. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and three places from 12 starts. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Went down narrowly in a NG at this track latest when a nose second but did record a solid 30.44 over the 527m trip. Has the ability and expected to go close again.
