Q2 Parklands Race 3 - Middle Distance Challenge H
VILLAIN OF MAGIC (3) showed good pace from out wide and was prominent early but began to paddle and faded out of it when 7th at this track in Grade 5 company. Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Can atone. AUTUMN STORM (2) missed the frame latest but had been racing well prior to that including a Grade 4/5 win two back (30.51) at Q Lakeside. Can improve sharply here. BRUNSWICK BULLET (4) looks close to another win after finishing third last time (35.06) at this track. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Hard to beat again. GOLDSTAR SANDLER (1) in the money here last time and looks a top-three prospect again.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (30.00) at this track over 520m. Thereabouts at his last couple and is capable of better.

Missed the frame latest (30.98) when fifth over 550m at Q Lakeside in a Grade 5/6. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and six places from nine starts. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 6 length third over 600m at this track, clocking 35.06. Rates among the chances this time.
