TAB fixed odds: $2.25 Win
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666540623/race/6

The Watchdog says : GYPSY PLAY (1) returned to form with a smart 21.83sec Shepparton win and she has raced well here over 300m previously, so from the good draw she should be able to pounce on the lead and they will have a hard time reeling her in.

$5 Place – JAY FOR JACK
Healesville Race 8 Box 8 350m 1:08pm
TAB fixed odds: $1.60 Place
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666540623/race/8

The Watchdog says : He rises in class today, but he did turn in a handy performance here over 300m in January and he has come up with the perfect draw. There is a bit of pace underneath, but the speed runners will move to the rail, so he should avoid trouble in running and get every chance to hit the scoreboard.

$1 Trifecta – 2 / 5 / 1,6,8 (33.33%)

Must Watch Race

Grade 5 Heat

Warragul Race 7
460m 8:45pm

The Watchdog says : ORSON THUNDER (2) is the real deal and should be winning easily. KEY EVIDENCE (5) has good early burn and will keep the pressure on throughout, so he can fill the quinella spot. HURRICANE KEELY (1), ANNABELLE ROCKS (6) and ALLAN COE (8) should be battling for third.

‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :

ORSON THUNDER (2) is still learning what it’s all about, but he is showing enormous potential. He burst onto the scene with two breathtaking 400m wins here and he encountered little luck in his next two runs at Shepparton, however he bounced back to his best with a dashing 25.95sec win here last start and he will be even better for the run. KEY EVIDENCE (5) is another promising type, and he looks the likely runner to fill the quinella spot. He carved out a slashing 22.59sec win here in January and he will have no trouble covering the extra distance tonight. ALLAN COE (8) has won three-of-four here over 400m and he too must be respected, while HURRICANE KEELY (1) has talent and may sneak into the top three.
