Buddy Boom Sprint Final Pbd

Prize Money: $5,545

HUNTER GEORGE (8) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 7th at Cambridge Raceway following on from a second place finish (18.60) at this track the start prior. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. Ready to return to form. MEGA POWER (7) produced a useful 18.58 when winning over 318m at this track last start. Harder here but expected to feature again. ZIPPING BESTOW (6) boasts a strong record this journey here with four wins and two minors from 11 tries. Was out of the placings last time (21.58) at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 2 H, finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths. Looks one of the chances. STOP WORKING (3) can measure up with the right run.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 318m. Last start finished 2nd on January 16 over 318m at this track behind Mega Power beaten 2 lengths (18.72) in a Class 2 H. The form from the last run stacks up well. Worth including.

Missed the frame last start when a 12 length seventh (22.06) at Cambridge Raceway. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.
