Q1 Lakeside Race 5

Garrard's Horse And Hound

Prize Money: $10,000

AKELA KUNG FU (4) was well fancied last time on the strength of the win two back but could only manage second (31.01) at this track. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minor placings. Makes plenty of appeal. ZIPPING NARWHAL (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (25.57) in a Grade 5 at this track. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Has ability and can atone. FIRE RICOCHET (1) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only a neck from Daintree Tommy in second (22.18) at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Must be included in calculations. HOOKED ON MAGIC (5) is a last start winner in very good time. Right in the mix.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished fourth over 710m at Q Parklands, beaten 8 lengths (42.33) behind Autumn Storm in a Grade 5 on December 26. Happy to risk in this.

Placed last time (31.01) at this track in a Restricted WIN, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minors. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
