Geelong Race 5

Topcat Video Productions (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

BIG MAKO (6) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (23.20) in a T3 RSTW at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Meets a moderate line up and rates on top this time. ZIPPING SCOOBY (2) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (24.68) last time in a Grade 5 at Bendigo. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings five times from eight starts. Better than last start and can bounce back. ROSCOE BALE (3) is not to be discarded.

Didn't make the placings last time at Bendigo (24.68) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3 length fourth. Yet to win but has placed five times from this draw. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when second (23.28) over 400m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but is worth plenty of thought.

Latest effort finished 5th in a T3 RSTW on April 17 over 400m at this track behind Aston Shekel beaten 5 lengths (23.20). Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (24.00) in a Grade 5, finishing a 12 length sixth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Tough field and looking to others this time.
