Get Your Quaddie On!

Prize Money: $9,905

CHOOSING TEXAS (7) goes very well here starting 13 times for six wins and four minors. Comes off a (29.30) win last time, scoring by 6 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 509m at Northam. Makes strong appeal on best. GREAT CHAT (6) goes very well at this journey here having never missed the frame including three wins and four placings. Placed last time (29.98) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing second and beaten 1.3 lengths. Suited here and expected to run well. STARLIGHT TORY (1) was on speed throughout but collided in the run and finished third (30.05) at this track over 520m in a Grade 4/5. Key chance on best form. RIPPIN' RUBY (3) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Comments

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 2.25 lengths third (30.05) over 520m at this track. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 3 length fourth (35.02) over 601m at this track. Others preferred on this occasion.

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only second (29.98) at this track over 520m. Capable of a strong show.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 6 lengths over 509m at Northam in a handy 29.30, beating Incredible Heart. Has run blistering time here with a 29.64 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.
