Richmond Race 5 - Grnsw Puppy Classic Heat 1 H
ABSCONDING (1) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at this track, scoring by 1.75 lengths (29.68). Expected to go close again. DEADLY CHARM (8) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at Wentworth Park over 520m behind Zipping Reaper (30.61) in a Maiden. Was in the money prior to that. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Key player if finds best. SCRUTINISING (2) missed the hat-trick last start when fourth and beaten 6 lengths (25.79) last time at Maitland. The form out of his last race has been franked. Key player if finds best. EURO KEEPING (3) generally performs well over this distance.

Good performance to win by 1.75 lengths at this track over 520m (29.68) beating Tarawi Brumby in Grade 4/5 on October 23. Can make it two on the bounce.

Did a good job two starts back at Maitland to win by a neck in 25.25, beating Hot To Stop. Last start finished 4th in a Grade 4/5 on October 12 over 450m at Maitland behind Doonside Lewis beaten 6 lengths (25.79). Is a danger.

Could manage only fourth last time but impressed the start prior when she clocked a solid 29.78 over 520m finishing third at Wentworth Park. Has the ability and looks an each way chance.

Got back last start and could only manage eighth but before that won easily by 3.5 lengths at Nowra (20.59) beating Spring Steffi in a Grade 5 on October 14. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Modest effort last time out when fifth over 401m at this track. This looks too tough.

Scored by a nose last time (23.28) in a Maiden over 401m at this track. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Resumes from a ten weeks spell and was in the minors at only other fresh up run, finishing third at big odds over 520m at Wentworth Park. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.
