Q Straight Race 5 - Garrard's Horse And Hound
TIME TO WORK (2) was strongly fancied on the back of a win two starts back but finished second last time (19.11) at this track. The form out of his last race has been franked. Capable of going well again. RINGBARK GUS (4) has a strong record here including two wins from three starts. Scored by 2.25 lengths last time (19.06) in a Grade 6 over 350m at this track. Looks one of the chances. DEVENISH DEVIL (1) goes very well this course and distance starting five times for two wins and two minors. Was out of the placings last time (26.14) at Q Lakeside in a Grade 4/5, finishing seventh and beaten 8 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. SHANDY'S BIRDIE (5) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.

Lines up chasing another win after scoring over 350m at this track in 19.06, set up by a fast early sectional. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.

Jumped well at Casino two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at this track last start over 350m. Going well and can bounce back to winning form.

Having his first run at Q Straight. Comes off an average run last start over 457m at Q Lakeside when fifth behind Aeration (25.97) in Restricted WIN. Will need to improve to feature.

Drawn the outside box and could be suited with some luck. Goes ok at this track and distance but recent form not good enough, this will test.
