Prize Money: $10,375

TULLY LUNA (5) produced a modest effort most recently when seventh at Sandown over 515m behind Bourne Model (30.09) in a S/E Group 1. Was in the money prior to that. Has ability and can bounce back. PAW ERINA (2) boxed on well to finish third last time, beaten 1.4 lengths (35.30) behind Whodat Shanlyn at this track. Deserves a win and gets her chance. HOLDEN BALE (1) comes off an average performance last start when fifth at this track over 600m behind Panama Rhode (35.55) in a Grade 5. Placed at his previous run. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. I'M HONEY (3) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Missed the frame latest (35.55) when fifth over 600m at this track in a Grade 5. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Looks suited and should go close.

Missed the frame last start when sixth and beaten 10 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Looks a strong place chance on best figures.

Comments

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 5.5 lengths third (34.36) over 595m at Sandown. The form out of the last run measures up. Among the chances.

Most recently finished 4th on May 15 over 595m at Sandown behind Sunset Wisp beaten 5 lengths (34.47) in a Grade 4/5. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.
