Healesville Race 5

Gorski Engineering

Prize Money: $1,530

GO GO JEFF (4) has mixed form recently, finishing sixth (20.08) in a Grade 5 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Can make amends this time. YEAH YOU (7) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished second (19.89) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Has a good record here at this journey. Expected to feature. SOMERTON WILLOW (1) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only one length (19.72) behind Porangi Moose at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Must be included in calculations. DEMONIC SPIRIT (2) cannot be underestimated.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 19.72 over 350m at this track. Still to win from this draw but has been in the placings two times. Top chance.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by 2 lengths at The Meadows (30.56) beating High Five Indi in a Grade 5 on September 2. Is a danger.

Last start finished 6th on September 25 over 350m at this track behind Greta's Gold beaten 6 lengths (20.08) in a Grade 5. More than capable and well placed to find his best form.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a sixth over 425m at Traralgon. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
