Q1 Lakeside Race 12 - Ladbrokes Blackbook

NEON DRIFT (6) was a strong winner last time by 1.5 lengths at Casino in Grade 5 in one of the quickest times on the program (16.97). Failed to fire only run here. Hard to fault her form and makes plenty of appeal again. NANDO WHIRLWIND (1) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished in the money last time though when third (19.93) at this track. Form at the trip sound including three wins. Expecting another good run. ASTON BLITZ (8) stalked lead from an outside box last start before finishing second (17.08) at Casino in a Grade 5 over 300m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Overdue and is among the main hopes. SAVANNAH STARS (2) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Surprised two starts back at this track to win by 1.5 lengths in 19.98, beating Pretty Straight. Last start finished 6th on August 19 over 352m at this track behind Daintree Tommy beaten 9 lengths (20.32) in a Grade 5. Brought a two-run winning streak to an end last time when outside the placings. Worth another try.
