Grafton Race 4 - Valley Protective Services 0-1 Win Heat 4 H
FIRETHORN (5) broke through for her maiden success last time out at this track over 350m (20.16). The form from her last run stacks up well. Looks the testing material. JIMARY NERO (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (25.82) in a Mix at this track over 450m. Key runner on best form. ARMOURED TITAN (2) was checked in the run and safely held when seventh (21.23) in a Maiden over 350m at this track. Safe beginner and drawn well close to the inside. Has the ability and can atone with the right run. QUEEN LOCH (8) was out of the money here on debut but expected to be much improved.

Got off the mark three back with his maiden win at this track. Placed following that before a last start fourth at this track. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.

Failed to finish the race over 350m at this track last start. Prior to that was beaten 10 lengths over 411m at Casino in a Grade 5. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 411m at Casino. Hard to have this time.

Returns from a three-and-a-half months break and only other fresh up run was on debut when placed over 400m at Maitland. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 411m at Casino. Likely to struggle this time.

Solid performance to win by a neck at this track over 350m (20.54) beating Gin On Ice in Maiden on December 31. Prefer to watch at this stage.

Ran a fair race on debut when settled off the speed early and held position to finish fifth (20.73) at this track over 350m. Likely to be much improved. Hard to have this time.
