Q Straight Race 8 - Gorski Engineering 5th Grade H
WOLF CREEK (1) is in sizzling form lately, rocketing around Q Lakeside in 25.22 to score two back then following on with a 25.30 win over 457m at Q Lakeside. Rates a top chance again if runs up to recent form. KING'S SHADOW (8) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (20.36) last time in a Grade 5 at Q Lakeside. Expected to feature in the finish. RARE PRESENCE (2) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Finished second (19.14) at this track last time making it two minors on end. Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Expected to feature again. PAW KENNETH (4) is worth a look despite no experience at this trip.

Won again and recorded an impressive time after leading notching his three straight wins at Q Lakeside over 457m (25.30). Appeals as a leading chance again.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 366m at Capalaba. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 4 lengths in 16.60, beating Drinking Town. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on October 19 over 300m at this track behind Lone Pilot beaten 3 lengths (17.06). Hard to have this time.

Hasn't produced too much recently, and faces tougher opposition here. Not going well enough to figure in this.

Was out of placings last time (17.57) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 9 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and two places from six starts. Looks one of the chances.
