RACE FIVE
AYE AYE CAPTAIN (1) was beaten by gate 6 last start after forced to work hard in the run which saw him finish mid-field after the tough trip. Too far back the start prior from the 2nd line, he was only grabbed in the last stride here 3 runs back from this gate. The options are available for him to strike.
LIVING GRAND (7) tackled a qualifier last start and was snagged back before trying to work into the contest. With no forward spot on offer the start prior, he was forced to retreat and then could not work into it. The wide gate is his own doing courtesy of the ODM tag, but in this line-up, he can overcome the impediment.
CAPTAIN THUNDERBOLT (5) was in for the fight when 1st up from a spell 3 runs back and beaten 4m. Game in defeat at his next run, his efforts were franked when scoring a smart Redcliffe win last start. The gate is a dampener in this.
KETTERING GIRL (10) was angled to the pegs from the 2nd line last start to look for the short-cuts and worked home in nice order for the silver when a half-neck away. Look for her chiming in again.
SELECTIONS: AYE AYE CAPTAIN (1), LIVING GRAND (7), CAPTAIN THUNDERBOLT (5), KETTERING GIRL (10)
