Healesville Race 4 - Croydon Homing Pigeon Club
HAPPY CHICK (3) was the fastest winner on the program last time out, running away to score by one length (16.78) at this track. Looks well placed and should be tough to beat. MR. OTTO (4) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths (16.88) behind HAPPY CHICK at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Hard to beat again. ACE IS FIRE (1) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Little Jack Finn (16.74) in a Grade 5. Expected to feature. BOROUGH COOK (2) can measure up with the right run.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 1.5 lengths third but did clock a handy 16.74 over the 300m journey. Rates a top chance with a repeat here.

Good effort to win last start by 7 lengths over 390m at Ballarat in a handy (22.34), beating Astute Queen. In winning form now and looks a major threat.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Geelong over 400m in 22.70. Followed that up with a minor placing over 350m at this track at Grade 5 six days ago. Minor place prospects only.

Eye-catching performance leading throughout to score by 4 lengths in a Grade 5 NP last start at Warragul, clocking a brilliant 22.63 for the 400m trip. Smart win and looks a key chance again here.
