Prize Money: $2,655

COOKIE MAN (1) could manage only third last time but ran solid time (22.26) at this track over 400m when beaten 3.5 lengths in a NG. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. SHORTY BOY (2) is a talented dog who is a winner of 15 races and filled a minor placing latest when second at this track (22.13). Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Racing well and deserves a win. RATTLIN' RED (7) was in the minors two back (22.67) at this track but ran below best last time at The Gardens, finishing 8th. Has a good record here at this journey. Has performed well from this box with a win and five minor placings to his name from 11 starts. Must be included in calculations. JAKEY BLUE (8) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Comments

Hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior was an eye-catching winner scoring by half a length in a NG at this track and clocking a hot 22.16 for the 400m trip. Can measure up again if runs up to recent best times.

Finished in the minors last time in a NG at this track when a 1.5 lengths second but did run a scintillating 22.13 for the 400m journey. Rates on top here on the time from last run.

Was out of placings last time (30.00) at Wentworth Park in a Grade 4, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Box stats strong with five wins and two placings from 12 starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Did a good job two starts back at Richmond to win by 0.8 lengths in 22.67, beating Sneaky Jade. Last start finished 4th on March 27 over 401m at Richmond behind Queen Era beaten 10 lengths (23.29) in a Free For All. Others have better credentials.
