Healesville Race 12 - Jvdm Green Light On Podcast

MCKERCHER (1) has a strong record this trip with four wins and two placings from nine starts. In the money last time at Ballarat (22.26) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3 length third. Rates a leading player. TROPIC MAN (3) got around the 300m at this track to take a Special conditions Veteran race in a quick 16.71 for a 2.5 lengths victory. Has the ability and looks a key chance. SAILAWAY GIN (2) missed the frame last time when fifth (16.79) at this track but prior to that had three placings in a row. Has a good record at this journey. One of the better chances. SOLO MAN (4) is a last-start placegetter with solid claims again.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (22.26) at Ballarat over 390m. Deserves a win and gets his chance.
