Q Straight Race 9

Gap Greyhounds Make Great Pets 5th Grade H

Prize Money: $2,700

SHANDY'S BIRDIE (1) was a last start winner (16.28) at this track who is building a strong winning record. Form here excellent including two wins. Ran the fastest time on the program in her latest win. In form and can go on with it. MAJOR STORY (3) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only half a length from the winner Super League in second(19.07) at this track. Won at his only start from this draw. Expected to be in the finish again. SAPPHIRE KING (7) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (19.11) in a Mix 5 at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Cannot be underestimated. PARTY WITH TOM (2) is always hard to beat when drawn in this box.

Last start finished sixth in a Grade 5 on October 12 over 300m at this track behind Tuta Moment, beaten 8 lengths (17.30). Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
