Warrnambool (G) Race 9

Paddy Wants Pats

Stake: $3,481

RANGER RIOT (4) lines up here off a comfortable win at Geelong after jumping from box 3 (22.81). Has the squeeze box to overcome and will need the breaks early. Well placed and can measure up. GLAMOUR ZONE (2) impressed last time when produced a slick 22.55 win here in a new PB this course and distance. Has the ability and can measure up again. SURPRISE STAR (5) is progressing well with another good run, placing by 0.8 lengths (22.41) in a Restricted WIN at this track. The form out of last race has been strong. Expected to be in this for a long way. JUNO USKO (1) can sneak into the finish.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won by 2.25 lengths at Geelong (22.81) beating Creating in a Maiden on March 20. Will find this much tougher but he's got good box manners and speed. Returned in winning form and can go on with it.
