Prize Money: $2,925

LILLY ZOOM (5) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten 3.5 lengths over 390m Warrnambool in 22.20. Has won two of two starts from this draw. Top chance in this line up. ZIVA BALE (2) had the drop on the lead before drawing clear to score (22.84) at Geelong in Grade 5 over 400m. Bold showing expected again. VALLETTA DASH (4) finished well back at Shepparton last time when a 5 length sixth (22.66) but scored five back at Geelong (22.92). Has a good record here at this journey. Should be about the mark. FILL THE TANK (1) is likely to have admirers.

Goes well at this track and trip. Most recently finished last on September 27 over 400m at Geelong behind Anchor Cranker beaten 10 lengths (23.23) in a Grade 5. Coming out of a very strong form race. Can feature with the right run.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by 0.9 lengths at Geelong over 400m (22.84) beating Sandy Cabang in Grade 5 on October 10. Was strong in the market and scored a soft win most recently. Stay with her.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (22.20) over 390m at Warrnambool. Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this draw. Sure to go well.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior she clocked a solid 22.66 over 400m finishing second at Geelong. Harder here but worth including in multiples.

Could only manage eighth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (22.50) over 390m at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate and will need to find best.

Comments

Was out of placings last time (23.03) at Geelong in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.
