Traralgon Race 9

Morwell Top Pub (300+Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

GRIT (1) steps out for the first time at this circuit. Comes here a last start placegetter at Warragul in a Mix 6/7 (22.87). The form out of his last race has been franked. Capable of going well again. RAW PEARL (6) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 2.75 lengths (17.13) at Healesville. Can figure in the finish. IRISH LEGEND (3) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing second (20.57) at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from five starts. Leading chance. AMARYLLIS (2) deserves plenty of thought over this journey.

Comments

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 1.5 lengths second (22.87) over 400m at Warragul. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Comments

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (25.03) over 435m at Sale. Has a low draw but needs to bounce back.

Having his first run at Traralgon. Comes off an average run last start over 300m at Healesville when eighth behind Pink Moscato (17.56) in T3 Grade 7. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
