Dubbo Race 8

Feral Franky At Stud

Prize Money: $2,630

FUSION MINT (4) bolted home by 5 lengths (22.54) at this track last time from box 6. Hits the ground running so can overcome the squeeze draw. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. FANCY MAL (7) had the drop on the lead before drawing clear to score (22.86) at this track in a Grade 3/4 over 400m. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Expected to feature again. SECRET TREASURE (1) shapes well after a respectable run last time, finishing second in a Grade 3/4 at this track in 22.87. Top win latest and can measure up again. FROM THE DISCO (6) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three spot in a fast run most recently.

Comments

Risky starter who put in a fair effort in easier race last start. Looks well drawn here from the rails and will take some catching if jumps well. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 1, scoring five times. Among the chances.

Won two starts back at this track over 400m in 22.95. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 400m at this track at Grade 3/4 level. Likely to find this too tough.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 5 lengths over 400m at this track in a handy 22.54, beating Secret Treasure. Has a superb 22.48 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (22.99) at this track over 400m. Should be around the mark.
