Healesville Race 6

Gorski Engineering

Prize Money: $1,530

WANT SOME (5) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with two wins and a placing from five tries. Scored by 1.1 lengths last time (19.53) in a T3 RSTW over 350m at this track. Looks the one to beat with even luck. SODA DIESEL (2) was below best at his last start when 6th at this track following a second place finish (19.53) there two back. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Deserves plenty of respect. KING KABOOM (6) was unfancied latest when jumping from this same draw but belied the odds to place (17.10) over 300m at this track in a Grade 5. Bold showing expected again. SLIPPERY SHARK (1) will be hard to beat with a drop in journey.

Could only manage fifth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (22.62) over 390m at Ballarat. Nicely drawn on the inside and is among the better hopes.

Showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 350m in 19.53, claiming a T3 RSTW by 1.1 lengths. Expected to measure up again.
