Warragul Race 4

Des & Moira Kelly Memorial Trot

Prize Money: $6,000

MISTA WALKER (6) has been hard to fault of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 2110m at Cranbourne, getting home by 3 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can grab another win. LOVE WHO (3) was in the money at Ballarat two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1650m at Bendigo, beaten 17 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to turn things around. CHRISTMAS BABE NZ (4) disappointed last time when 12th over 2150m at Bendigo. Can bounce back. MAGIC LAW (5) is worth some thought despite her last-start tenth over 1720m at Melton on May 29.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr6) over 1650m after racing wide at Bendigo beaten 50 m by Betsy Anne (2:03.60) on June 3 at $61. Before that 6th (Fr1) over 1690m at Maryborough beaten 40 m by Fremarks Peggy (2:06.00) in M on May 31 at $61. Others make more appeal.

Last start was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Betsy Anne at Bendigo over 1650m on June 3 at $3.30. Raced better the start before that with a solid effort when 3rd (Fr1) over 2200m after showing early speed at Ballarat, at the bell was 3rd-5.77 beaten 9 m by Scar (2:47.60) on May 28 at $26. Should be in the finish.

Seven-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Cranbourne. Last start tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 3 m (10m Fr1) at Cranbourne (2:42.20) beating Kyvalley Misty in on May 24 at $8 at the bell was 2nd-4.1. Sure to be there at the business end.
