Q Straight Race 3 - Box 1 Photography Preferential Box Draw F
HEY ERNIE (4) goes very well at this course having never missed the frame including four wins. Scored by 4 lengths last time (18.80) in a Mix 5 over 350m at this track. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. BERNARDO BLUE (2) looks close to win after hitting the frame last run (18.99) at this track in a Grade 5. Has first look at box 2 this time. Solid record here winning two races. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Leading chance. BELLA GEORGIA (3) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, most recently finishing 2nd at this track over 350m. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Expected to be in the finish again. VERSIFICATION (6) should be thereabouts.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 300m at this track. Not keen this time.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 5 at this track when a 1.75 lengths second but did run a speedy 18.99 over the 350m journey. Has the ability and looks hard to top.

Won again in quick time after leading recording back-to-back wins at this track over 350m (18.80). With even luck looks hard to beat again.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (20.25) over 350m at Grafton. Has to overcome a wide draw and will need to find best.
