The Meadows Race 12 - Melbournegreyhounds.org.au
BIG DUKE (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing seventh (31.15) from Box 2 at this track over 525m. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with three wins from four starts. Worth another chance. FENELLA (8) scored two back in one of the fastest times on the card then was always well back and could manage only a 11 length 8th at Bendigo (24.80) latest. Great chance to atone. ASTON ALLURE (3) last start finished 2nd on March 19 over 525m at this track behind Obstropalous beaten 3.5 lengths (30.61) in a Grade 5. Looks a key player on best form. HIGHWAY HOOLIGAN (6) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three spot most recently.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 13 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at Geelong three back. Looks well placed here and well worth another chance.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished sixth over 500m at Bendigo, beaten 6 lengths (28.84) behind Dynamite Doug in a Grade 5 H on March 21. Happy to risk this time.

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (26.04) over 450m at Warrnambool. Boxed awkwardly and appears tested on latest effort.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest finishing second (19.72) at Healesville. Deserves respect.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 525m at this track. Likely to find this too tough.

Ordinary effort last start when she was slow out over 425m at Bendigo. Prior to that won by 2.75 lengths at Bendigo (24.21) beating Hard Compass in a T3 Grade 6 on March 12. Expected to bounce right back. Hard to beat.
