Grafton Race 1

Ladbrokes Mates Mode Pots Maiden

Stake: $1,933

STELLA AURORA (3) is yet to break through in six starts but has run a number of placings. Was below best last time when missed the frame finishing fifth (20.94) at this track. Can discover winning form. BUGATTI BOOSTER (2) was unfancied latest when jumping from this same draw but belied the odds to place (20.65) over 350m at this track in a Maiden. Has the ability and can measure up. LAST CHOICE (1) produced a modest effort most recently when seventh at this track over 350m behind True Legend (21.26) in a Maiden. Should be in this for a long way. TINY DREAM (4) is by Awesome McLaren out of Tiny Tot making debut. No favours with the draw and will need to begin well. Profiles well so watch market closely.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a sensational early split, giving a sight but fading late to finish third (20.65) at this track over 350m. Speedy conveyance who looks hard to beat.

Missed the frame latest (23.48) when fifth over 388m at Gosford in a Maiden. Starts from box 6 for the first time here. Has ability and should be around the money.
