Sportsbet Green Tick

Prize Money: $2,925

MEXICAN JACK (1) goes very well here starting six times for two wins and three minors. Hit the frame latest (22.57) when third at this track in a Grade 5 H. Has the ability and should feature. JUST BELIEVE (6) had the drop on the lead from the rails draw last start but could only manage third, beaten 8 lengths (22.78) at this track in a Special conditions Veteran race over 400m. Expected to feature again. PAW BRODY (2) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (22.78) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. STILL BELIEVE (7) has strong credentials from this draw.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 3 length third at this track but did record a fast 22.57 over the 400m journey. Expected to go close with a repeat of latest.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.78) in a Grade 5, finishing a 2.75 lengths fourth. Has three successes and six minors from 12 starts from box 2. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Did a good job two starts back at Bendigo to win by 0.8 lengths in 23.97, beating Crackerjack Kev. Last start finished 5th on October 19 over 450m at Shepparton behind Cash In View beaten 6 lengths (25.87) in a Grade 5. Capable of taking this out.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (22.78) at this track over 400m. Key chance on best form.
