Casino Race 2 - Happy Birthday Butch Mcleod Maiden
MAGICAL DEE (1) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (27.25) last time in a Maiden at Q Lakeside. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Has claims if she runs up to expectations. PACKHAM PUNCH (6) settled well back early on debut and always towards the tail to finish sixth (22.44) at Q Lakeside over 390m. Can improve sharply here. BAILEY DUTTON (2) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten one length into second (24.10) at this track in a Maiden over 411m. Expected to feature again. CINNAMON SWIRL (3) is building a nice sequence of placings – hard to fault that form.

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd over 300m at this track beaten 1.75 lengths (17.03) behind Pink Milk in a Maiden on January 27. Yet to win but has been in the placings four times from this draw. Worth thought.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 300m at this track. Thereabouts last start but looks tested this time.

Has hit the frame the last two starts, the latest at double figure odds when third (28.09) over 484m at this track. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Prefer others.

Last start was on debut when he finished 6th on January 9 over 390m at Q Lakeside behind Hawkesbury Honey beaten 7 lengths (22.44) in a Maiden. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

First starter by Feral Franky from Luminescence. Trained by Gregory Hancock. Keep a close eye on the market.

First starter by Tommy Shelby from Nicky Neo. From the Shane Staples kennel. Might pay to watch for a market push.
