Geelong Race 9

Pink Diamond Champion Distance Final

Stake: $80,460

LANFRANCO (8) charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led throughout to score when a 2.5 lengths winner (38.96) over 680m at this track. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. ETHANOL WATER (5) hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 660m at Ballarat in 38.01. Top win two back and rates a key player again. PANAMA RHODE (3) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 680m (39.25). Has the ability to give this a shake. ELLA'S BABE (2) recorded a half a length win (39.34) in a Special conditions H last time at this track. Has already won two times from this draw.
