Geelong Race 9 - Beachside Security
ASTON CAPER (7) finished in the minors last time but only a few starts back pushed the clock when winning over 390m at Ballarat, taking a Grade 5 in a swift 22.16. Rates a top chance if runs up to time three back. MR. FRANKIE LEE (2) had been in super honest form hitting the frame three times on end before finishing fourth (22.84) at this track last time. Solid record here winning two races. Should be thereabouts. PAW ESTRELLA (6) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fifth (23.07) from Box 4 at this track over 400m. Has a strong record from this draw, notching two wins and two minor placings from four starts. Has ability and can measure up. PAW JELANI (3) is worth including after a top-three finish most recently.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (22.16) over 390m at Warrnambool. Drawn close to the inside. Has ability and should run well.
