Geelong Race 1 - The Beckley Centre Geelong
CANYA PONGA (5) made a big impression on debut when hit the ground running from an outside draw with a fast early split, holding on for a minor placing when second and beaten 1.5 lengths at this track over 460m in 26.03. Promising type who will be in this for a long way. PHINEAS NIGELLUS (8) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (31.50) in a Maiden H at The Meadows. Shapes as one to consider. OBLIVIATE (1) failed to threaten on debut finishing fifth (31.21) at The Meadows over 525m. Gets the coveted rails draw for the first time. Can find the frame this time. REMUS LUPIN (2) is another with top-three prospects.

Turned in a fair debut run over 525m at The Meadows where she settled off the pace and battled on to finish fifth (31.21) and beaten 6 lengths. Further improved and drops down to the inside box this time. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Made a big impression on debut when made light work of a wide draw with a strong early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing second (26.03) at this track. Looks above average and expected to go close.
