Grafton Race 5 - Valley Protective Services Final F
PAW SAPPHIRE (1) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind NANGAR ZARA (25.43) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Must come into calculations. NANGAR ZARA (3) is looking to continue her winning ways off a superb 25.25 success at this track. Expected to feature again. NANGAR WALLY (2) produced an impressive win last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 4.5 lengths (25.13) at this track. Has definite claims again. PACKHAM PUNCH (5) has strong credentials over this journey.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (25.43) at this track over 450m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Pay to follow.

Caught the eye with a fast early split last time and setting up a 2.5 lengths win at this track over 450m in 25.25, making it two wins on end. Looks well placed to make it three straight.
