Grafton Race 9

Ladbrokes Punter Assist

Prize Money: $2,490

JO JO VALLEY (8) is a risky beginner but will go quickly out side in clear air and was a sizzling 19.85 winner around here two back, very hard to beat. GET UP SON (7) comes off back to back wins over this T/D and will look to rush forward early, major player. HAALAND (3) is holding a consistent level of form and HOT HAILEY (4) must be respected
