Grafton Race 2

Valley Protective Services 1-2 Win

Prize Money: $3,235

JUST GO GIRL (3) proved too good on debut over 340m at Gunnedah to score by 0.8 lengths (19.78). Can make it back to back wins. Can continue winning ways. JUST KIDDING (2) turned in a solid run fresh when finishing in the placings at Richmond in a Grade 5 (18.47). Fitter and longer journey looks ideal. Comes out of a hot form race last start. Bold showing expected. ROBELL SETH (1) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (20.39) in a Grade 5 at this track. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from six starts. Has ability and is one of the better chances. KNIGHT EXPRESS (7) pinged the lids and wasn't headed last time. Will be thereabouts.

Latest effort finished 6th on September 25 over 350m at this track behind Shot Of Whisky beaten 6 lengths (20.39) in a Grade 5. Tipped to improve sharply. Rates highly on best form.
