Mandurah Race 8

Fuller Fitness

Stake: $5,713

CAREER HIGHLIGHT (3) Back from a break of 28 weeks. Displayed good finishing speed when 2nd last start at Cannington in 30.18s over 520m but will be dropping in distance. Appears as a winning threat. SHEPHERD'S WAY (1) Stormed home to win last time at the track in 22.45s over 400m and ideal distance as proven previously. Gets a favourable box. Showing improvement in recent outings. Won't be far away. ELITE CRACKER (8) On a short turnaround. Placed 2nd last time at the track and drawn nicely. Looking sharp on the track since returning from a spell. Expect to go close. MOO MOVE (4) Didn't threaten when 5th last run at the track. Expected to rebound. Should muster plenty of early speed. Going well this campaign. Hard to knock and looks a nice each way proposition.

Comments

Bold effort when winning last time at the track in 22.45s over 400m and strong form at this distance. Will appreciate a good box. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Started $5.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last start at this track. Exhibiting good form since coming back from a spell. Has some claims.

First up from a spell of 28 weeks. Made considerable ground when 2nd last start at Cannington in 30.18s over 520m but coming back in distance. Strong chance.

Started $6.50 and weakened under pressure when 5th last run at this venue. Expected to rebound. Will be positive in the run early. Price in this race is tempting to get involved.

Odds of $19.00 and outpaced some runners late when 4th last run at this track. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.

Dictated the tempo to win last start around here in 22.35s over 400m and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Very competitive this preparation. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.

Backing up quickly for this race. Did well when 2nd last time at this track and will try to take advantage of the draw. Definite winning chance.
