Healesville Race 9

Mr Hummer Limos Veterans (250+Rank)

Stake: $3,159

SWEET ALESSIA (1) hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 2.75 lengths third over 390m at Shepparton, clocking 22.51. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Must come into calculations. IN THEIR HONOUR (4) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing seventh (19.87) at this track in a Special conditions Veteran race. Expected to bounce back to best. APPLICANT (3) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at Bendigo over 425m behind Jarmon (25.25) in a Grade 5. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. HOWE PIE (6) jumps at a shorter trip and still warrants respect.

Didn't make the placings last time at Bendigo (25.25) in a Grade 5, finishing a 10 length seventh. Has five minors from nine starts from box 3. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
