Healesville Race 9

Gorski Engineering Challenger (250+)

Stake: $1,744

BLACK FRIDAY (7) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 300m. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. The hardest to beat again. SIDEWINDER (4) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the money last time though when third (17.30) at this track. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Expecting another good run. WHY NOT EMILY (6) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 300m (17.30). The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Key runner on best form. BRAEMAR SHEILA (2) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Comments

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (17.51) over 300m at this track. Aided by a low draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Latest effort finished 4th on October 20 over 300m at this track behind Urana Rhino beaten 4.5 lengths (17.30) in a Grade 5. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split and ran away with a 0.8 lengths win at this track over 300m in 17.16. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.
