The Meadows Race 11 - Melbournegreyhounds.org.au
HIGHLY CONNECTED (1) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (30.39) in a Special conditions race at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Looks suited here and big improvement expected. ROSS THE BOSS (6) ran below his best last time finishing fourth (30.27) over 525m at this track in a Special conditions race. Form here is sound including four wins. Comes out of a solid form race last start. A big run wouldn't surprise. SPRING MILES (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (30.15) in a Special conditions race at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Cannot be left out. PAW QWAN (7) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior he recorded an excellent 25.10 over 450m finishing second at Shepparton. Should be in this for a long way.

Latest effort finished 4th on February 14 over 525m at this track behind Mav Reiko beaten 8 lengths (30.15) in a Special conditions race. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (26.20) at Geelong in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 7 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks a place chance at best.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (25.88) over 460m at Geelong. Awkwardly drawn and will need everything to go his way.

Showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fourth over 525m this track in 30.27. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Was a winner three back at Geelong then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (30.49) at this track. Could pose a serious challenge if finds best this time.
