Geelong Race 9

Sportsbet Green Tick (300+ Rank)

Stake: $1,652

MOTIVATE (4) comes off an average run last start when sixth at Sale over 435m behind Leviathan (25.15) in a Restricted WIN H. The form out of last race has been strong. Should be very hard to beat this time. SHIMA SUNSET (5) stalked the lead from a low draw and fought on well to finish 2 lengths back in third (22.53) at Ballarat in a T3 Grade 6 over 390m. Leading player again. ASTON ACACIA (1) turned in a plain effort last time when seventh at this track over 400m behind Smoking Ace (23.81) in a Mix 6/7. Comes through a solid form race last start. Has ability and is one of the better chances. DAPHNEE'S GOLD (7) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Has finished last in her last couple of starts, most recently at this track over 400m. Better than the last run. Don't underestimate.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Bendigo over 500m in 28.82. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 6 level. Hard to tip with any confidence.

Hasn't been that impressive recently but he does have good record over this track and distance. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Latest effort finished 3rd on May 21 over 390m at Ballarat behind Sabatini beaten 2 lengths (22.53) in a T3 Grade 6. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.
