Warrnambool Race 7

Matko Hire Damsels Dash

Stake: $3,218

ASTON OPHELIA (8) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (24.22) at Bendigo over 425m. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Rates highly and will give a great sight. PANAMA RHODE (7) boasts an excellent record and yet to miss the frame including three wins from four starts, the latest winning (25.46) over 450m at this track. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. ASTON AURELIA (1) was out of placings last time (23.54) at Geelong in a Special conditions H, finishing seventh and beaten 15 lengths. Already a winner from this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up. ASTON ZOOM (4) is among the chances again if she runs up to the latest effort.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished last over 400m at Geelong beaten 15 lengths (23.54) behind Mr. Beets in a Special conditions H on October 18. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Comments

Impressive performance racing just off the speed and going on to score by a half a length in a Grade 5 last start at Horsham, clocking a solid 23.34 over the 410m trip. Should be in this for a long way.

Won two starts back at Horsham over 410m in 23.14. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 435m at Sale at Grade 4/5 level. Hard to envisage a win.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won easily by 4.5 lengths at Warragul (26.02) beating Slay Queen Molly in a T3 RSTW on November 7. Has claims if at her best.

Was a little disappointing last start, fading in the run home at this track over 450m. The start prior was at her best with a 1.3 lengths win over 460m at Geelong. Others preferred on this occasion.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 2.5 lengths third (24.22) over 425m at Bendigo. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 8, scoring two times. Go close.
