Race 9

Prize Money: $815

TROY SMOKIN JOE (3) was impressive last time, posting an effortless 3.5 lengths win in taking an A7 in 30.19 and a new Best time this course and distance. Has the ability and expected to go close again. STORMY BLUEY (5) followed an A5 win two back with a fourth, beaten 2.75 lengths, in an A5 at this track over 500m (30.62) last time. Suited here. Hard to beat on his best. MAKEYAMINDUP (1) looks well placed here following an A5 win two back before finishing in the minors at her latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 500m (30.35). Deserves another chance this easier class. COURTY ASH (6) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.
