Healesville Race 8

Rsn Grey Areas - Wednesday & Friday

Prize Money: $2,925

FLEX FOR ME (4) ran a speedy 19.34 when placed over 350m at this track last start in a Grade 5. In form and rates on top this time. TWILIGHT SLEUTH (2) finds it hard to win. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when second (19.45) at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings four times from eight attempts. Leading chance. KING CHERRY (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing seventh (30.64) in a Grade 5 at Sandown. Boasts two wins from four starts out of this box. Can do much better this time. HYPERKINETIC (3) can sneak into the finish.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 350m at this track clocking 19.45. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Finished eighth last start at Warragul but prior to that had been racing consistently. Aided by a low draw but will need the breaks to go his way.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 1.75 lengths third but did record a solid 19.34 over the 350m trip. Has the ability and looks hard to top.

Has hit the frame the last two starts, the latest at double figure odds when third (26.72) over 460m at Warragul. Tricky draw to overcome. Has to do a bit more.

Last start finished last on May 12 over 515m at Sandown behind Aston Tommy beaten 13 lengths (30.64) in a Grade 5. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.
