Q1 Lakeside Race 5 - Independent Liquor Group
SPRING GRIM (8) is rarely out of the finish, recording 17 places from 31 starts. Finished second (21.89) at this track last time making it two minors on end. Solid record here winning three races. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Likely to feature again. EXPLOITATION (2) turned heads when clocking a head turning 23.57 over 407m at Rockhampton. Harder here but expected to feature again. NOAKI UNO (6) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 5.5 lengths away in second (21.86) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Well placed and gets her chance. PEPPIMENARTI (1) must be respected at his pet track and distance.
