Fab Con Manning Valley Pathways

Prize Money: $2,335

CHICKS A THIEF (1) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fourth (17.97) in a Grade 5 at this track. Worth another chance. BILL'S MATE (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (18.29) in a Grade 5 at this track. Should be about the money. HIDDEN SECRET (3) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing seventh (18.26) in a Grade 5 at this track. Key runner on best form. DIVE RIGHT IN (6) cannot be left out over a shorter trip.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished fifth over 300m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Failed to threaten last start and looks tested again.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a eighth over 272m at The Gardens. Can't recommend against this lot.
