Hatrick Straight Race 5

LANCE GREEN ACCOUNTANT C3/4 313M PBD

Prize Money: $3,727

TORQUE IN TORQUE (1) was strongly fancied latest and proved too good with a neck win at this track in a handy 17.50. Has the coveted inside box and in form and has the ability. In great form and can continue her winning ways. GRASSCUTTER MOE (7) continued her winning form with another strong run to make it back to back wins at this track over 313m (17.38). Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Runs out this trip strongly and capable of going well again. BOW ANNA (4) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when sixth at this track over 313m behind Loveable Rogue (17.65) in a Class 4/5. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Faces a big drop in class today and can atone. OPAWA KEITH (3) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2.25 lengths over 313m at this track in a handy 17.55, beating Big Time Nico. Must be a winning chance again.
