Geelong Race 5

Sportsbet Green Tick

Stake: $3,629

TORNADO TAHLIA (2) three runs back clocked a dominant 21.91 win over 390m at Ballarat then has found the minor money in two runs since. Has the ability and expected to go close again. ASTON ZOOM (7) boasts a strong record this journey here with two wins and three minors from six tries. Missed the frame latest (22.64) when eighth over 390m at Ballarat in a Free For All. Can hit the frame with the right run. TRICKY DISCO (8) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (22.50) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Warrnambool. Can find the frame this time. BLACKPOOL RANGER (3) cannot be ruled out.

Missed the frame last start when a 10 length eighth (22.64) at Ballarat. Previous form sound including a win three back at Ballarat. Makes plenty of appeal on best and can easily atone here.
