Ladbrokes Geelong Race 3

Rex Gorell Volkswagen Geelong Diamond

Prize Money: $150,000

Promising youngsters engaged and the betting needs close monitoring. TORTURE (1) resumes and just missed in Stakes grade on debut. Won her latest jumpout and is well placed with Radley's 3kg claim. The gate is awkward, but she will be naturally improved and with average luck she will be hard to beat. GHANA'S AKAN (8) debuts and has looked the goods at the jumpouts. Draws a soft barrier and Jamie Melham's booking suggests she's pleasing. A bold run is likely. DIVINE DOT (6) looks an each-way play building on her easy all-the-way win at Mornington on debut when heavily bet. Has to skip over from the outside barrier but expected her to be very competitive regardless. MOANA SPIRIT (4) was taken over to Adelaide for her debut and was much too good in an Open 2. She's won a Flemington jumpout since and should get every chance to repeat the dose. GOLDEN PULSE (3) is another to consider.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at Caulfield Heath Mm 2yo Classic on December 20 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Unit Five carrying 58kg at $41. Not far away last time but prepared to risk here.
