FLYING PETRUS (3) missed the frame latest when sixth at Healesville (20.18) but scored three back at Ballarat (22.46). Rates on top in this line up. TORNADO JACK (1) missed the frame last time when seventh (24.67) at this track but prior to that had two placings in a row. The form out of last run is most impressive. Should be about the money. YOU'RE IN LUCK (2) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 4th (24.31) at this track. Form from her last run is proving very strong. In the mix. ZAPATRON (4) can run a bold race on best form.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fourth (24.31) over 425m at this track. Coming out of a very strong form race. Expected to go well.

Comments

Missed the frame latest (23.41) when seventh over 400m at Geelong in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and four places from 12 starts. Suited here and expected to run well.
