Warragul Race 5

Grv Vicbred Series Ht2

Prize Money: $2,925

STORM HUSTLER (3) impressive winner in quick time last start when scoring by 6 lengths (25.85) at this track. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Can continue the winning form. ELUSIVE CURL (6) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with two wins and a placing from four tries. Hit the frame latest (25.93) when second at Geelong in a Mix 6/7. Suited here and expected to run well. MOMENT (1) ran below best last time finishing sixth (23.19) over 400m at this track from Box 4. Can measure up this time. MALAKAI ROSE (2) must be included in calculations.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 6th over 400m at this track beaten 6 lengths (23.19) behind Cartman in a Mix 6/7 on February 3. Last couple have been below par. Deserves another chance.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by a head in 22.82, beating Point Man. Last start finished 4th on February 1 over 435m at Sale behind Kiah's Rufus beaten 3.5 lengths (25.03) in a Grade 7. This appears within his reach.

Hit the frame last time at Ballarat but the start prior was an effortless winner after leading throughout, scoring by 11 lengths in a Maiden H at Ballarat and clocking an outstanding 25.02 for the 450m trip. Harder here and place looks best.

Backs up after winning easily by 4.5 lengths at Sandown (29.70) beating Panipucci in a Mix 6/7 on February 2 four days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fifth (22.89) at Warrnambool over 390m. Has claims on best form.

Missed the frame last start when a 27 length seventh (30.90) at Sale. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Better than last run and looks an each way chance.
