Geelong Race 3 - Etu Vic
BEND YOUR EAR (2) did a good job to finish third last time out over 400m at this track (22.99) in a Bottom Up - Grade 6, the second top-three finish on the trot. Key player on best and worth another chance. SNOOPY (8) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, breaking through last time at this track over 400m. Sure to be thereabouts. FORBES HOUDINI (1) has missed the frame at his last two but did run well three back when third (19.94) in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win at Healesville. Rates a winning chance on best. AS PROMISED (7) was in the money last start and likely to feature again.

Has finished fourth at his last couple of starts, most recently at this track over 460m. Is a danger.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage eighth last time out over 400m at Warragul. Prepared to risk this time.
