Sale Race 8

Ed Fountain Removals

Stake: $1,867

ROYAL PRIDE (4) has been hard to follow lately, running fifth (26.71) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Can make amends this time. TUCKER'S BOY (1) was a winner two back when racing on speed but drifted back latest and safely held when 7th and beaten 12 lengths at this track (25.48). Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Should play a prominent role. SCOTCH FEVER (2) scored a 1.75 lengths win (20.18) latest, claiming a Rank Limit - Grade 5 over 350m at Traralgon and draws the same box this time. Bold showing expected again. WARRIOR TOMMY (7) is in form and must include among the chances.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (25.48) in a Grade 5, finishing a 12 length seventh. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Lines up chasing another win after scoring over 350m at Traralgon in 20.18, set up by a fast early sectional. Looks the one to beat again.

Was out of placings last time (20.14) at Healesville in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed five times. Will need some luck to feature.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
