Geelong Race 11

Parker Pumps (250+ Rank)

Stake: $1,683

JUST BELIEVE (4) has a strong record here with two wins and a minor from six starts. Missed the frame latest (22.60) when sixth over 390m at Ballarat in a Grade 5. Looks a key chance on best form. ODYSSEUS BALE (1) turned in a plain effort last time when eighth at Horsham over 410m behind Belsar (24.04) in a Grade 5. Was a winner the start prior. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. PLUTOCRACY (7) took the sit on the lead but levelled up to score (22.31) at Ballarat in Grade 5 over 390m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Form should stack up. WATERLOO BOY (2) boasts a solid strike-rate from this box.

Missed the frame latest (24.04) when eighth over 410m at Horsham in a Grade 5. Starts from box 1 for the first time here. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 400m at this track. That followed a win two back in 22.81 beating Geani Bale over 400m at Warragul. Hard to have this time.
