RACE THREE
AROONA (2) hasn’t been too far away of late and last start returned a nice effort under the circumstances to be only 4m from the winner. The start prior he was attacking the line with gusto to get within a flared nostril of the in-form MAJOR LUCKY. From this gate, this is well within reach.
READILY (9) was back in the pack from this gate last start and was trying to make late ground when mid-field. Runner-up at his previous 2 starts including a half-head margin when closing out strongly, he will need some factors in his favour here but can be making a late challenge.
ANDREW JAY (8) was a winner over the sprint trip here 2 starts back when finding the right conditions and leading throughout. Working too hard last start, he can trail through and has claims.
WEASEL (1) was sharper last start when tough in the breeze and fighting hard to grab the silver when only beaten a head. With the inside advantage, he can get the right trip to be in the mix.
SELECTIONS: AROONA (2), READILY (9), ANDREW JAY (8), WEASEL (1)
SUGGESTED BET: AROONA (2) to win
