Grafton Race 1 - Valley Protective Services 0-1 Win Heat 1 H
RACING PENNY (2) missed the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 350m at this track in 19.84. Rates on top and can find winning form again. LOCO PIRATA (1) is a patchy beginner. Last start finished 4th on December 15 over 350m at this track behind Fortune Hunter beaten 7 lengths (20.47) in a Grade 5. Can hit the frame with the right run. FIERY PIASTRI (5) was well in the market on debut but safely held in fourth (18.13) at Taree Super Track. Can do far better this time. GIN ON ICE (7) has strong claims after a close top-three finish last time out.

Missed the frame latest (20.47) when fourth over 350m at this track in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability and should feature.

Was out of placings last time when fourth (20.27) at this track in a Maiden. Will jump from box 2 for the first time. Appeals as a leading chance in this.

Good performance to win by 2 lengths at Casino over 411m (24.22) beating Jimary Opal in Maiden on December 26. Looking to others this time.

Ran a fair race on debut when jumped well and was on speed, fading to finish fourth (18.13) at Taree Super Track over 300m. Should be further improved. Should be right in the finish.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 350m at this track. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Turned in a sound debut over 300m at Taree Super Track where he settled on speed and stuck on well to finish third (17.91). This appears within his reach.

Dual acceptor. Hasn't shown anything recently, all starting at big odds. Hasn't shown enough pace to date to overcome wide draw. Not keen, needs to lift.
