Healesville Race 3

Prize Money: $3,360

CATCH SOME RAYS (1) was well supported last start but didn't deliver when seventh (16.67), beaten 3 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. PERIODICAL (3) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish second (26.16) at Geelong in a Grade 4/5 over 460m. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Deserves a win and gets his chance. EVIL EYE (5) boasts a strong record this journey here with 18 wins and 16 minors from 47 tries. Below best last time at this track (16.63) in a Free For All, finishing a 2.25 lengths sixth. Among the main chances. GUARDIAN (2) cannot be ruled out.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 2 lengths in 19.30, beating Negative Nibbs. Last start finished last in a Grade 5 H on September 10 over 460m at Warragul behind Flaming Smooth beaten 9 lengths (26.45). Has ability and looks a winning hope.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 2.75 lengths second (26.16) over 460m at Geelong and making it two placings on end. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (16.62) in a Free For All, finishing a 2.25 lengths fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and two places from seven starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 3 length sixth (19.63) over 350m at this track. Hard to have this time.

Eye-catching performance to score by one length in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a good 19.32 over the 350m journey. Expected to feature if runs up to that effort.
