Race 3

Stake: $902

CANDOLIM SHADOW (5) could manage only fifth at this track last time but turned heads when posting an exceptional 29.64 over 500m at this track the start prior. Hot win two back and looks the one to beat here. JESSE GEE JAMES (3) finished fourth last time at this track but could not have been more impressive before that in his sharp 29.88 win at this track over 500m. Has the ability and looks a key chance. GORTIN SMASHER (2) is heading the right way. Out of the placings two back then scored by half a length last start at this track over 500m (29.99). Faces a stiffer grade but latest effort hard to fault. FIRE SNOW (4) was beaten into fourth last time but ran impressive time with a speedy 29.93 at this track over 500m. Harder here but will be in this for a long way.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished 4th in an A2 on January 12 over 500m at this track behind Magical Kirsty beaten 2.25 lengths (29.93). Looks a solid hope.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 4 lengths in 29.64. Last start finished last over 500m at this track beaten 8 lengths (29.95) behind Droopys Invent in an A2 on January 8. Better than that and worth following up.
