Q Straight Race 8 - Engineering By Stp Consultants
RAY'S ATTACK (3) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 1.75 lengths 5th at this track (18.93). Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Looks the one to beat on his best form. GRAB A DONUT (1) was below best last time at Q Lakeside (27.03) in a Grade 5, finishing a 69 length eighth. Has already won out of this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up. RITZA KEN (7) goes very well this trip starting 11 times for four wins and four minors. Hit the frame latest (34.96) when third at Q Parklands in a Grade 5. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. SMOKE ZONE (8) boasts a solid strike-rate over this trip.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in his races, Last start finished sixth over 457m at Q Lakeside, beaten 8 lengths. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.

Missed the frame last time but the start prior was an impressive winner after tracking the speed, scoring by a nose in a OPEN at this track. Can measure up again if runs up to recent best times.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 300m in 16.52. Followed that up with a minor placing over 300m at this track at Grade 5 three days ago. Hard to envisage a win.
