Warrnambool Race 7

Sportsbet Ht3

Stake: $3,218

VILMA BALE (2) made light work of the tricky draw with a fast early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing second (25.23) at this track over 450m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to her credit. Can find winning form. TORNADO TAHLIA (4) last seen when scorching around the 400m at Geelong in 22.49 for a 1.5 lengths victory. Expected to feature again. PAW QUARK (5) is looking to continue his winning ways off a useful 23.95 victory in a Grade 5 at Bendigo. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. PAW GRADY (8) cannot be dismissed although new to this venue.

Hit the frame latest (25.23) when second at this track in a Grade 5. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from five starts. Looks a key chance on best form.
