Traralgon Race 12

One More Race To Go

Stake: $1,867

WOODSIDE WOMBAT (6) Finished on top last run at the track and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Can take this out. HOT ROCKER (1) Solid effort when winning last start at this track and hard to fault at the trip. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 starts. Possesses very good finishing speed. Strong chance. TILLY GIRL (3) Landed the spoils when winning last time at Sale but down in distance. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Getting better in recent performances. Must respect in this event. RITA STAFF (7) Honest race when 2nd last run at Sale but back to a shorter distance. Expected to be flashing home. Solid each way claims.

Was first to greet the judge when winning last start at the track and strong form at the distance. Unbeaten last 2 attempts. Will be trying to topple them late. Strong claims in this.

At $14.00 average performance when 6th last run at Warragul. Should muster plenty of early speed. Looks hopeful.

Racing on a quick back up. Looked flat when 8th last time at Healesville. Should race on the speed. Overlook from a betting angle.

Did well when 2nd last run at Sale but will be facing a significant drop in distance. Should be swooping on the field late. Can run into the placings.

Was $7.50 and fairly underwhelming when 7th last run at Sale but has a good draw. Should get going late. Dropping in distance. Keep safe.
