Healesville Race 8

Gorski Engineering (300+Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

WILKIE TWYCROSS (7) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing third and beaten 1.3 lengths (19.69) behind Greta's Gold at this track. Winning claims. SUMMER HAIL (4) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 350m. One of main contenders. MISS CHARMED (2) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Grade 5 at this track. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. SALTY SNOOP (1) can add to a sequence of top-three finishes.
