Geelong Race 8

Geelong Printing

Stake: $3,218

RIVIERA BALE (2) stalked the lead from a middle draw and boxed on well to finish 1.75 lengths back in second (25.95) at this track in a Grade 5 over 460m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Likely to be in the finish again. KISAUNI (1) is mixing form and out of the placings last time but was a Grade 5 winner three starts ago and moves to Box 1 this time where he has performed well. Rates a winning chance on best. SOMETHING CLEVER (8) stalked the lead then burst clear to score (26.18) at this track in a Grade 4/5 over 460m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Capable of going well again. GUNAI BOLD (6) won as favourite last time and is in the mix again.

Missed the frame last start when fourth and beaten 12 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at Sale three back. Better than last run and looks set to run well.

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd on November 18 over 390m at Shepparton behind Mick Says So beaten 4 lengths (22.44) in a Special conditions Veteran race. Would be better placed in something easier.

Showed strong early pace and proved too slick around Bendigo over 500m in 28.15, claiming a Grade 5 by 4.5 lengths. Among the chances and worth following up.

Good performance to win by 2.25 lengths at this track over 460m (26.18) beating Deep Fever in Grade 4/5 on November 19. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Sandown over 515m in 29.60. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 5 level. Look for improvement. Not out of it.
