Sale Race 3 - Mdb Contracting

DEEDS NOT WORDS (4) could manage only seventh at Sandown last time but turned heads when clocking a blistering 24.33 over 435m at this track the start prior. Can measure up again if runs up to recent best times. PAW POPPY (1) got around the 435m at this track to take a Maiden in a respectable 24.52 for a 1.3 lengths success. Expected to feature again. NOVA INTENTION (3) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when fifth at Geelong over 460m behind Kiwi Lismore (26.56) in a Mix 6/7. Form from her last run is proving strong. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. SPLENDID RAIN (2) will be hard to beat with a drop in trip.
