Geelong Race 6

Geelong To Sandown Park Ht1

Prize Money: $3,360

KEEP ROLLING (6) finished well back at Q Parklands last time when a 5 length seventh (30.05) but scored three back at Sandown (29.59). Has claims if he runs up to expectations. VALENZUELA (3) finished third (34.52) two back at The Meadows but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Yet to miss the placings in seven runs from this box, including two wins. Has ability and can measure up. ASTON BARRISTER (7) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 5 lengths (30.76) at The Meadows. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. PAW HADES (2) is worth consideration after filling a hole at big odds last start.

Was out of placings last time (34.75) at The Meadows in a Grade 4/5, finishing sixth and beaten 7 lengths. Yet to miss the placings in seven runs from this box, including two wins. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at The Meadows over 525m in 30.36. Followed that up with a minor placing over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 4 six days ago. No easier here so may struggle.

Could only manage fifth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (30.16) over 525m at The Meadows. Has a wide draw to navigate but can measure up.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in his races, Last start finished fourth over 450m at Ballarat, beaten 12 lengths. Not up to this.
