Griffith Race 4

Griffith Bearings Hcp (C1)

Stake: $17,760

LOVEOFMYLIFE (5) was a good winner three weeks ago. She showed her best form since arriving from New Zealand. The smaller field will mean she won't be getting a long way off them. FLYCATCHER (1) has been a tad up and down. Last run was a lot better than it looked. Does get some important gear changes for this which could help. GEEWIZ JOHNNY (4) always drops out and sometimes runs on. He can use the barrier to more advantage. PEARL TROUT (3) was a little better at Wagga. A drier track would benefit.
