Geelong Race 8 - Nbt Electrical
FLASH OF GENIUS (3) boasts strong form at this track having won three times from five starts. Missed the frame latest (30.50) when sixth over 515m at Sandown in a Grade 5. Rates on top and should go close. IDYLLIC JAMES (2) comes off a (25.72) win last time, scoring by 4.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 460m at this track. Has two wins already from this draw. Can hit the frame with the right run. ASTON HERCULES (4) produced a moderate run last time when fifth at Bendigo over 500m behind Aston Guitar (28.41) in a Grade 4/5. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Key runner on best form. PAW GORDY (6) has a solid strike rate at this track and distance.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 460m in 25.72 last start, beating Paw Gaeton. Form from this draw is very strong, including two wins. Hard to beat.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when second (29.99) over 525m at The Meadows. Has a wide draw to navigate and prefer the place this line-up.

Took a tumble when crowded up close to the inside last time over 400m at Warragul and returns from a four months spell. May be worth another chance but happy to watch this time.
