Geelong Race 10 - Onthestraight.com.au
VINNIE BLACK (2) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the minors latest when third (22.93) at this track and may be close to breaking through. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from five attempts. Can go on with it. KENSINGTON FLYER (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (22.63) at Ballarat behind Abracadabra in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Leading player again. ABSOLUTE FAITH (7) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing sixth (23.15) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has ability and is one of the better chances. TAKE A PHOENIX (4) warrants respect although new to this track.

Showed good improvement when second behind Abracadabra at Ballarat last start over 390m (22.63). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (16.97) over 300m at Healesville. Has a squeeze box to navigate but can measure up.

Surprised two starts back at Ballarat to win by 2.25 lengths in 25.98, beating Neena Bale. Last start finished last in a Grade 5 H NP on June 5 over 400m at this track behind July She Lied beaten 14 lengths (23.46). Likely to find this a bit tough.
