Geelong Race 13

Prize Money: $1,530

HURRICANE BERT (7) has a strong record here with three wins and a minor from seven starts. Recorded a 2.75 lengths win (22.37) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 last time at this track. Looks the one to beat with even luck. SOLID GROOVE (8) had been in super honest form hitting the frame four times on end before finishing eighth (22.76) at Warrnambool last time. Has never been out of the money in five starts this course. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. JACKPOT CASH (2) continues to race well but is struggling to break through, placing at his last four runs. Last start finished 2nd on October 24 over 390m at Ballarat behind Dimora Big Boy beaten 3.5 lengths (22.46) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5. Overdue and is among the main hopes. TRICKY DISCO (1) is a last-start placegetter worth considering.

Good effort last time when second (22.51) over 390m at Ballarat. Has the inside draw this time. One of the better hopes.

Comments

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors four starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (22.46) at Ballarat over 390m. Overdue and expected to feature again.

Missed the frame last start when fourth and beaten 6 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Could pose a serious challenge if finds best this time.

Did a good job two starts back at Warragul to win by 2.5 lengths in 22.78, beating Hot Honey. Last start finished last on October 23 over 350m at Traralgon behind Homebush Autumn beaten 8 lengths (20.53) in a Grade 5. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Lines up chasing another win after scoring over 400m at this track in 22.37, set up by a fast early sectional. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Didn't make the placings last time at Warrnambool (22.76) in a Grade 5, finishing a 8 length eighth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
