Casino Race 8 - Ladbrokes Odds Surge
COUNTRY FORM (1) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 5th (25.42) at Grafton. Form here at this distance is sound. Should bounce back. BURNSIDE LEVI (8) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (28.16) in a Grade 5 at this track. Safe beginner but wide box to overcome and will need some luck. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. HAND ME DOWN (5) is a consistent runner who is having his first try here. Had a squeeze draw but was too good last time scoring by one length at Grafton over 450m (25.73). One of the leading chances again. MIGHTY ALAN (7) will run well despite no experience on this trip.

Hit the frame latest (25.54) when third at Grafton in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Solid performance to win by one length at Grafton over 450m (25.73) beating Rain About in Grade 5 on July 6. Was strongly supported last start and ran right away with it. Worth following up.
