Healesville Race 10

Db Construction

Prize Money: $1,530

BIG PLAYER (6) last start finished 4th on January 30 over 300m at this track behind Simply Petite beaten 5.5 lengths (16.96) in a T3 Grade 6. With a clean break looks hard to beat. GETTING NERVOUS (1) had been in sparkling form with a two start winning streak coming to an end last time finishing third (16.94) at this track. Will go close here with a clear run. DUSTY DANAE (5) clocked a new course and distance PB last time, finishing a 2.75 lengths second behind Sandy Mikado in 16.99. Looks a leading chance again. TELL ME LIES (7) warrants respect following a recent placing over this course and distance.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 2.75 lengths second over 300m this track in 16.99. Boxed on well to finish runner-up last time. Leading player.
