Prize Money: $8,785

DESIRABILITY (1) scored by a space (34.59) off the inside draw two back then drew the same last time but could manage only a 7 length 4th at this track (30.20). Tough to beat if on-song. PAW FABIAN (8) has been out of the placings last couple but caught the eye when clocking a 29.99 over 525m at this track three starts back. Expecting another bold showing. GOLD CLASS COOL (2) finished a 2.25 lengths second last start over 525m at this track in a sharp 30.02. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. PAW XANDER (6) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 2.25 lengths second at this track but did record a slick 30.02 over the 525m trip. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 485m at Horsham in a handy (27.29), beating Noah's Best. Will find this a bit tougher, not among the main chances this time.

Comments

Missed the frame latest (30.56) when fourth over 525m at this track in a Grade 5. Strong record off the draw with two wins and two minors from five starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
