Maitland Race 6

Greta Gbota Branch 1-6 Win Heat 1 H

Stake: $2,564

CASH THE LOT (1) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish second (22.51) at this track in a Grade 5 over 400m. Good form should continue. TAMIKA BANNER (6) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (18.27) last time in a Grade 4/5 at Richmond Straight. Has a good record at this journey. Has good early speed and can overcome the tricky draw. Should be thereabouts. JOHN'S FLASH (5) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 3rd at this track over 400m. Hard to knock his form from this box, unbeaten in three starts. Must be included in calculations. SLICK RAIN (2) is likely to have admirers.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 6 length second over 400m this track in 22.51. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished fourth over 400m at The Gardens, beaten 13 lengths (24.09) behind Blushing Queen in a Grade 5 on March 1. Will find this a little easier. Has ability and worth including.

Good effort to win last start by half a length over 431m at Gunnedah in a handy (25.62), beating Mortar. Will find this a bit tougher, prepared to risk on this occasion.

Missed the frame latest (19.06) when fifth over 320m at Richmond in a Grade 5. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. Has ability and should be around the money.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (22.68) at this track over 400m. Unbeaten in three starts from this box. Key runner.

Goes well at this track and trip. Last start finished 5th over 336m at Muswellbrook beaten 7 lengths (20.51) behind Fiery Chana in a Grade 5 on March 1. Major threat on best form.
