Geelong Race 11

Greyhound Clubs Victoria (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

TOUCH OF SIN (5) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 0.8 lengths into second (22.35) at Warrnambool in a Grade 5 over 390m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Top chance in this line up. XISAN BALE (8) was never in contention last time after missing the jump at this track, but prior to that won easily by 3.5 lengths at Shepparton (22.37) beating Somerton Mick in a Grade 5 on September 1. Cannot be left out. SLIPPERY SHARK (1) was out of the placings last time when seventh at Sale (26.05) but did record second best time of the card when winning three back. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Shapes as one to consider. BRIELLE (4) is a last-start placegetter in a competitive race - should be thereabouts.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 7th over 435m at Sale beaten 15 lengths (26.05) behind Lakeview Lass in a Grade 5 on August 17. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.25) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length sixth. Has two wins and eight placings from 13 starts from the draw. Key chance and should go close.
