Geelong Race 13 (250+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

SANTORINI BALE (1) well back settling but did wind up strongly to finish 4th and beaten only 5 lengths (23.53) at Warragul. Key runner on her best form. INTEX BALE (8) was safely held in tougher company last start after settling well back at Ballarat, but prior to that won by 1.1 lengths at this track (23.15) beating SOLAR TOBY in a Grade 5 on April 7. Better than last start and can bounce back. BARRY BALE (2) turned in a modest effort most recently when sixth at this track over 400m behind Magpie Harry (23.96) in a Grade 5. The form out of his last race has been franked. Can do much better this time. SOLAR TOBY (3) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.

Didn't make the placings last time at Warragul (23.53) in a Grade 5, finishing a 5 length fourth. Has two wins and five placings from 12 starts from the draw. Looks a key chance on best form.

Was out of placings last time (23.96) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 11 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and two places from eight starts. Key chance and should go close.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (23.23) over 400m at this track. Drawn close to the inside. Worth including.

Has finished last in her last couple of starts, most recently at Shepparton over 390m. Capable of much better. Worth keeping safe.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (23.47) over 400m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw but capable of a better result.
