Q Straight Race 9 - The Ipswich Tribune
JULIAN'S JUNGLE (3) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at Q Lakeside over 457m behind Hara's Sandor (26.30) in a Grade 6. Placed at his previous run. Looks the one to beat on his best form. BUNKER'S REVIEW (8) had been racing in honest fashion recording three placings in a row before finishing sixth (22.39) at Q Lakeside latest. Worth another chance. GOLDSTAR HENRY (2) has missed the frame at his last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (16.98) at this track in a Grade 6. Well placed here and should do much better. VELVET DASH (1) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (19.52) over 350m at this track. Has the inside draw and capable of a better result.

Last start finished last over 350m at this track beaten 22 lengths (21.23) behind Very Shrewd in a Grade 6 on September 17. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.
