Warragul Race 4

Gap (1-4 Wins)

Stake: $1,882

KODA (4) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Has hit the frame the last two runs, the latest when second (19.74) at Healesville. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Well-placed to take this out. DELIGHTFUL RAIN (2) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win at this track. Can feature with the right run. INFLECTION POINT (5) doesn't win out of turn. Finished second (24.43) at Bendigo latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Form at the trip sound including two wins. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Must be included in calculations. MISS RODRIGO (1) is worth a look over a shorter distance this time.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.9 lengths in 26.43, beating Omega Josiah. Last start finished 6th in a Mix 6/7 on September 21 over 595m at Sandown behind Mepunga Sandy beaten 9 lengths (35.34). Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 400m. Last start finished 4th over 435m at Sale beaten 5.5 lengths (25.00) behind Dr. Vienna in a Grade 5 on September 30. Should prove hard to beat.

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only second (24.43) at Bendigo over 425m. Has the ability to be in the finish.

Had been in consistent form with three minors on end before missing the frame last start when eighth (23.44) at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and will need to find best.
