Healesville Race 8

Central Scaffolds

Prize Money: $3,360

CHAVERO (1) goes very well here starting 24 times for nine wins and nine minors. Below best last time at this track (19.33) in a Free For All, finishing a 6 length fifth. Rates a leading player. CATCH SOME RAYS (4) charged out of the boxes last time with a fast early sectional but swallowed up late, finishing fifth (16.58) at this track and bringing a two run winning streak to an end. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Likely to be about the money. MICHIGAN (6) ran the fastest on the card last time scoring by a neck (16.38) at this track. Leading player again. LADY GUNAI (5) scored an unexpected win last time. In the mix again.

Finished fifth last time but the start prior was an eye-catching winner after leading throughout, scoring by 4.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 at Warragul and clocking an excellent 22.42 for the 400m trip. Rates on top and can find winning form again.

Last start finished seventh over 400m at Warragul, beaten 8 lengths (23.06) behind Play Lab in a Grade 4/5 on February 20. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.

Has placed the last couple. Ran 19.17 when second at this track latest but the run prior he clocked a hot 16.61 over 300m finishing third at this track. Harder here but worth including in multiples.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 300m. Last start finished 5th in a Special conditions race on March 8 over 300m at this track behind Michigan beaten 3 lengths (16.58). Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Go close on his best form.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by a neck in 16.30, beating Diamantina Pear. Last start finished 7th in a Special conditions race on March 8 over 300m at this track behind Michigan beaten 5.5 lengths (16.73). Capable of taking this out.
