Q2 Parklands Race 5

Ladbrokes Odds Surge

Stake: $14,040

RED DIRT ROAD (8) was a little disappointing last start at Q Lakeside when 5th (36.70) over 642m. Has a strong record here at this journey including four wins. Boasts a strong record from this draw with five wins and three minor placings from eight starts. Has winning claims on his best figures. STOWAWAY (6) has been in the money at 14 of 34 starts, winning two back before another minor placings latest when second (36.37) over 642m at Q Lakeside. Form here is sound including two wins. Expected to feature on best form. HARA'S LUNA (7) is an accomplished stayer with a great record at the longer races. Finished fifth latest over 642m at Q Lakeside (36.60) in a OPEN. Form at the trip excellent including four wins. Should be in this for a long way. AKELA NINJUTSU (4) is worth including.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 642m at Q Lakeside. Happy to risk in this.

Was out of placings last time (36.83) at Q Lakeside in a OPEN, finishing sixth and beaten 10 lengths. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from six starts. Will need some luck to feature.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (36.19) over 642m at Q Lakeside. Has a solid record from out wide but will need everything to go her way.

Didn't make the placings last time at Q Lakeside (36.70) in a OPEN, finishing a 8 length fifth. Boasts five wins and three places from eight starts off the draw. Has ability and looks a key chance.
