Warragul Race 8

Rsn Grey Areas - Wednesday & Friday

Stake: $1,652

THORKILDSEN (3) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing seventh (26.54) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Solid record at the distance winning four races. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Rates on top in this line up. FULL BARREL (8) goes very well this course and distance starting six times for two wins and two minors. Missed the frame latest (31.38) when seventh over 525m at The Meadows in a Grade 5. Among the main chances. HATENNA BALE (2) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (26.37) in a Grade 5 H at this track. Has a good record at this journey. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Bold showing expected. HOWE PIE (6) is one of the chances after collecting a minor prize last time.

Missed the frame last start when a 12 length eighth (30.67) at Sandown. Previous form sound including a win three back at Sale. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (26.37) in a Grade 5 H, finishing a 6 length fifth. Has two successes and three minors from eight starts from box 2. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 460m at this track in a handy (26.51), beating Arkstorm. Will find this a bit tougher, can't make much of a case this time.
