Warrnambool Race 12

One More Race To Go

Stake: $3,159

SAINT XAVIER (4) hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 9 lengths (22.29) over 390m at this track. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Expected to measure up again. HENRY BALE (5) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 7th at this track following on from a third place finish (22.68) there the start prior. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Cannot be left out. MOONLIGHT SID (7) has missed the frame at his last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (22.75) at this track in a Grade 4/5. Can feature with the right run. BAIJIU (8) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Finished second at big odds last time (22.88) over 390m at this track. Draws the cherry this time. Has to do a bit more.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 390m at this track. Likely to find this too tough.

Put a space on them to post a big 9 lengths win at this track over 390m (22.29) beating Wairua's Way in Grade 5 on July 14. Can make it two on the bounce.

Last start finished 7th on June 19 over 390m at this track behind Lektra Lyanna beaten 11 lengths (23.01) in a Grade 5. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
