The Meadows Race 4 - Phoenix Slots Open July 28

KRAKEN PADDY (4) racing well without winning, placing at his last five runs. Last start finished 2nd over 525m at this track beaten a head (30.61) behind Greysynd Sammy in a Grade 5 on July 9. Expected to feature in the finish again. CUTHBERT BINNS (2) comes off an average effort last start when sixth at Ballarat over 545m behind Shima Blush (32.08) in a Grade 5. Has ability and can atone. SUMMER SPRITZ (6) broke well and quickly mustered speed to win over the 460m at Geelong two runs back then raced on speed again when finishing second at Geelong last start. Must be included in calculations. ONCE MORE (7) was in the money last start and poses a threat again.

Could only manage fourth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (25.47) over 450m at Shepparton. Has a low draw but appears tested on latest effort.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 460m at Warragul clocking 26.29. Has never missed the frame in two starts from this box. Definite chance.
