Ed Fountain Removals Ht1

Stake: $4,262

NANGAR JIM (5) is a promising dog in the frame at 18 of 48 starts including 18 wins and was a last start winner (28.42) over 510m at this track. Form at the trip sound including six wins. Expected to feature in the finish. BO RHAPSODY (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (29.72) in a Grade 5 at Sandown. Form here sound including three wins. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Expected to run well. INVICTUS BLUE (7) did a good job to finish third last time out over 515m at Sandown (30.30) in a Mix 6/7, the second top-three finish on the trot. Can improve sharply here. WARRIOR ETHAN (2) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 4th over 515m at Sandown beaten 8 lengths (29.72) behind Where's Poppy in a Grade 5 on December 5. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 510m in 28.89. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 460m at Warragul at Mix 6/7 level. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 595m at Sandown. Happy enough to avoid.

Strong performance showing plenty of speed to score by 3.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 last start at this track, recording a scintillating 28.42 for the 510m journey. Top win and looms as a strong winning chance.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (30.30) at Sandown over 515m. Has ability and can run well.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (24.82) at big odds over 435m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and looks tested this line up.
