Q2 Parklands Race 5 - Garrard's Horse And Hound 5Th Grade H
BEST EDITION (1) goes very well here starting six times for two wins and two minors. Hit the frame latest (30.17) when third at this track in a OPEN. Looks suited here and rates on top. PRETTY POSH (2) failed to come into contention last start after settling well back at this track, but prior to that won by 0.8 lengths at Q Lakeside (25.44) beating High Five Lad in a Grade 5 on December 27. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with two wins from two starts. Must be included in calculations. STARRY RAYMAR (4) is in consistent form, jumping from this same box when a 3.5 lengths second in a OPEN at Townsville and making it back to back minors. Harder here but expected to feature again. CASH CRUISE (6) was in the money last start and poses a threat again.

Comes to this track for the first time. Comes off an average run last start over 457m at Q Lakeside when eighth behind Time Keeper (26.28) in Grade 4/5. Hard to tip with any confidence.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished second at Townsville latest but prior to that clocked a lightning 21.82 over 380m finishing second at Townsville. Rates a chance if runs up to recent fast time.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 520m in 30.21. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when sixth over 520m at this track at Grade 5 level. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 407m at Rockhampton. That followed a win two back in 23.33 beating Lady Leslie over 407m at Rockhampton. Looking to others this time.
