LOLLIPOP VALLEY (1) finished well back at Grafton last time when a 7 length sixth (20.51) but scored four back at Grafton (20.22). Worth another chance. MARTINIQUE (3) has a strong overall record having nine wins and 14 places from 33 starts but was out of the money last time when sixth (17.52) over 300m at this track. Performs well off this draw. Has the ability and rates a key chance this line-up. SHUFFLE (6) was below latest but prior to that a Grade 5 winner in quick time (17.05) at this track in a Grade 5. Well placed here and should do much better. BUTCHER (2) showed good early speed and won last start. Sure to run well again.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 6th over 350m at Grafton beaten 7 lengths (20.51) behind Baby Billy in a Grade 5 on October 9. Placed two back at Grafton. Recorded two placings in a row prior to the latest effort. Worth another chance.

Comments

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three on end. Last start rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (16.93) at this track. Hasn't been far away. Don't underestimate.
