Healesville Race 9

Sportsbet Emerald Consolation Final

Prize Money: $7,325

SHORT STRAW TREV (1) scored (16.54) last time out at this track adding to an already respectable career. Has a good record here including four wins. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Can continue the winning form. HIJACK (4) comes here after a sizzling win over 300m at this track in 16.53. Bold showing expected again. SUMMER KOBIE (8) could manage only second at this track last time but caught the eye when clocking a lightning 25.54 over 460m at Warragul the start prior. Top win two back and rates a key player again. HIGH END CASH (2) was in the money again last time and not beaten far when third (16.58) at this track in a Special conditions race.

Won two starts back won at this course over 300m. Couldn't reproduced the effort last start when he finished 2nd on March 4 over 300m at this track behind Highly Abrasive beaten 1.75 lengths (16.60) in a Special conditions race. Would be better placed in something easier.

Dual acceptor. Scored by 2.5 lengths last time (16.53) in a Special conditions race over 300m at this track. Strong record off the draw with two wins and two minors from four starts. Makes strong appeal.
