Goulburn Race 4

Ladbrokes Blackbook Heat 1 H

Stake: $2,495

MELLCAT JESS (8) boasts a strong record this journey with four wins and two minors from 11 tries. Missed the frame latest (20.15) when fourth over 350m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Expected to be in the finish. FLAMENCO ETHICS (2) boasts a strong record this journey here with three wins and three minors from seven tries. Below best last time at Maitland (22.93) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 5 length fourth. Makes strong appeal on best. SANDAVE JEANIE (7) turned spotting a big start finishing seventh (30.97) last time in a Grade 5 at Wentworth Park. The form from her last run stacks up well. Expected to feature in the finish. DIG DEEP INDY (3) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.

Finished third last start (20.23) at big odds over 350m at this track. Has a low draw. One of the better hopes.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (23.28) at Dubbo over 400m. Solid chance with even luck.

Backs up after winning comfortably by 5.5 lengths at Nowra (20.81) beating Just Stop It in a Grade 5 on May 5 four days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and he needs to find another gear.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (20.15) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 6 length fourth. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Key chance and should go close.
