Warrnambool Race 9

Edwards Electrical

Stake: $3,159

AERO EXPRESS (1) had won two in a row before finishing third (22.67) last time at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Likely to feature again. IF HE COULD (4) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at Geelong over 460m behind Tarawi Therese (26.26) in a Grade 4/5. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Better than last start and can bounce back. LISSY FERNANDO (2) last raced on March 14 when fourth (23.01) over 400m at Geelong in a Grade 5. Has never missed the frame here from three starts. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. SPECIAL TEAMS (8) is always a threat when she races at this journey.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 390m. Last start finished 3rd over 390m at this track beaten 4.5 lengths (22.67) behind Canya Sparkle in a Grade 5 on July 10. Looks a strong winning hope.

Didn't make the placings last time at Geelong (23.01) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4 length fourth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Among the main chances.

Last start finished 5th in a Grade 4/5 on June 7 over 460m at Geelong behind Tarawi Therese beaten 9 lengths (26.26). The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by a neck in 22.35, beating Belair Brae. Last start finished 4th in a Grade 5 on July 10 over 390m at this track behind Ollie Deeds beaten 3.5 lengths (22.67). Likely to struggle this time.
