Warragul Race 12

We Stand With Tasmania

Prize Money: $2,925

IMPOSTER (6) hit the ground running and was prominent to the turn but faded out of it when 6th at Ballarat in Grade 5 company. Looks the one to beat on his best form. GALLOPING JESSIE (2) finished well back at this track last time when a 14 length eighth (23.58) but scored three back at Ballarat (22.25). The form out of last race has been strong. Leading chance. CELTIC BOUY (3) jumped from this box and placed but in quick time latest (22.94) at this track over 400m in a Bottom Up - Grade 5. Rates a leading chance. VARSITY BALE (1) can add to a sequence of top-three finishes.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.44) in a Grade 5, finishing a 7 length eighth. Has one win and four placings from six starts from the draw. Looks a place chance at best.
