Stake: $10,866

PAW OSWALD (8) boasts a strong record this journey with 30 wins and 34 minors from 82 tries. Scored by 1.75 lengths last time (29.63) in a Free For All over 515m at this track. Looks well placed and should feature. HE'S A PEARL (5) was a strong winner (29.62) from box 1 last time, scoring by 2.75 lengths at The Meadows. Has a tricky draw to overcome and will need a clean break. Expected to feature again. MAV REIKO (2) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (30.00) at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Should be about the money. PRISON BREAK (1) comes off a (27.57) win last time, scoring by 1.3 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 485m at Horsham. Has already won four times from this draw.

Missed the frame last start when a 4 length fourth (30.00) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Better than last run and looks set to run well.

Comments

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors five starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (29.92) at this track over 515m. Thereabouts recently and definitely worth including.

Improved two runs back to score then won again last start over 525m at The Meadows (29.62), beating Zipping Columbus. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.

Backs up after winning by 1.5 lengths at Bendigo (27.73) beating Deep State in a Grade 4/5 on June 5 six days ago. This is much harder assignment and she needs to find another gear.
