Geelong Race 1

13 Races Tonight

Prize Money: $1,530

AUSSIE MIRAGE (1) has an honest record despite remaining a maiden and is long overdue for a win, having placed 11 of 19 career runs. Although yet to win tends to go well here. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Racing well and deserves a win. TAKE A IRIS (4) is having first try over this longer journey. In the placings last time (19.99) at Healesville after jumping from this draw. Suited here and expected to run well. INFATUATED (3) missed the frame last time when sixth (22.66) at Ballarat in a Maiden but not beaten far the start prior. Can find the frame this time. REGAL ALLY (6) will be hard to beat despite making her debut at this circuit.

Yet to break through in 19 runs, the latest effort a second over 425m at Bendigo in 24.65. Rarely out of the placings off this draw. Looks a key chance this line-up.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (22.66) over 390m at Ballarat. Has a low draw and capable of a better result.

Having her first run at this track and trip. Last start finished third at Healesville over 350m in (19.99). With some luck and a clean start should figure in the finish.

Returns from a eight months break after failing to finish at Bendigo last time but prior to that was fourth in a Maiden two back. Key chance on best form and may be worth another chance here fresh.
