The Meadows Race 5 - Growling Frog Golf Club
BANDIT DARYL (6) boasts a strong record this journey with three wins and five minors from nine tries. Placed last time (35.21) at Sandown in a R/A FIN, finishing third and beaten 8 lengths. Looks a leading chance on best. ASTON PRATT (2) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by 3.5 lengths at Sandown in a handy 34.72 beating Bowie Sunny. Capable of going well again. IVORY NARWHAL (3) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only 2 lengths from the winner Elite Intention in third(29.91) at Sandown. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Expected to feature again. FAST KNOCKDOWN (8) can feature with the right run.

Disappointed last time but just missed the placings two back over 715m at Sandown. Looking to others this time.

Flew the lids with a strong early split and led throughout to score an impressive win by 3.5 lengths over 595m at Sandown (34.72). Recorded the quickest time on the card last time. Stay with him.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2 length third (29.91) over 515m at Sandown. Looks a solid contender.

Good effort to win last start by 1.75 lengths over 545m at Ballarat in a handy (31.59), beating Call Security. Will find this a bit tougher, hard to have this time.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 525m at this track. Can't recommend her in this.

Could only manage fifth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (34.61) over 595m at Sandown. Tough draw to overcome but capable of a better result.
