500Mtrs (Or)

Prize Money: $1,132

ROMEO ABILITY (2) Charged home to win last time at this venue in 29.11s and suited at this distance historically. Keeping a perfect win record the last 4 runs. Looks to be in good shape and must go close today. FABULOUS LIVIA (4) Honest race when 2nd last start at the track. Has good early speed and will be nicely positioned. Very competitive this preparation. Hard to overlook. FORDS GAMBLE (1) Fresh after a break. Finished well when 3rd last run at the track in 29.82s. One of the major hopes. INNFIELD CHARM (3) First up from a spell. Good run when placing 3rd last time at Nottingham but back to a shorter trip. Has good closing speed. Keep in mind.

Burnt early with a scorching sectional but had to settle for third over 500m at this track, clocking 29.82. Coming out of a very strong form race. Can feature with the right run.

Finished third last start over 680m at Nottingham behind Sambar Dream in a OR. Worked home well on that occasion and should be closing well again. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 500m in a OR at this track. The recent effort suggests she is ready to win.
