Geelong Race 6

Topcat Video Productions (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

ASTON MONSOON (6) has been in the placings at his last two runs, most recently when third (23.08) in a Grade 5 over 400m at this track. Better than last run and makes appeal this time. BLOW TORCH (2) ran a good time (26.36) when placing three back at Warrnambool but has missed the frame since, last time out finishing sixth (27.18) at this track. Has the ability and can find best this time. DOONGALLA ADAM (8) turned in a plain performance last time when seventh at this track over 460m behind Broken Halo (26.56) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5. Placed at his previous run. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Can measure up this time. LEKTRA OTIS (3) is a last-start placegetter and was not beaten too far - in the mix again.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 525m at The Meadows. Predicted to struggle on this occasion.

Latest effort finished 6th in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 on August 18 over 460m at this track behind Ring A Bluey beaten 13 lengths (27.18). Has performed below expectations at his last couple but is capable of far better.

Comments

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd on August 1 over 545m at Ballarat behind Bun Quake beaten 0.8 lengths (31.38) in a Grade 5. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.

Solid performance to win by 2.75 lengths at Ballarat over 450m (25.62) beating Rev Ken in Grade 5 on August 29. Looks up against it this time.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (25.70) over 450m at Warrnambool. Has to overcome a wide draw but capable of a better result.
