Healesville Race 4

Pitstop Mower Repairs

Stake: $3,159

HEAD HUNTER (8) missed the frame latest when eighth at this track (17.03) but scored four back at this track (19.52). Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. FLEX FOR ME (7) had a tricky draw last time and although midfield in 4th wasn't far away finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner (19.74). Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. One of the better hopes. PRETTY PANAMA (1) comes into calculations after placing in a tight finish most recently. GENERAL WINSTON (6) deserves plenty of thought over this trip.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 1.3 lengths third (19.66) over 350m at this track. Expected to go very well.

Finished second at big odds last time (22.89) over 400m at Geelong. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Looks to have the job ahead.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by 1.4 lengths at Warrnambool (22.47) beating Naringal Mate in a Special conditions H on April 21. Likely to struggle this time.
