The Meadows Race 7 - Gorski Tippers Melbourne
HARTLAND WILLOW (1) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on her exceptional win the start prior, getting around Shepparton over 450m in 25.16. Can return to winning form here if runs up to time two back. PAW PHELPS (2) is better than last start when fourth (30.88) from Box 4 at this track over 525m. Boasts a strong record from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from seven starts. Can measure up this time. PAW STELLA (3) has missed the frame at her last two but did run well three back when third (29.95) in a Grade 5 H at Sandown. Expected to do much better this time. FILL MY POCKETS (6) has not raced here but still warrants respect.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (30.88) in a Grade 5, finishing a 10 length fourth. Strong record off the draw with three wins and two minors from seven starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (30.46) at Sandown in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 12 lengths. Strong record off the draw with three wins and two minors from six starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when second (30.00) over 520m at Q Parklands. Tough draw to overcome but is among the better hopes.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest finishing third (30.03) at Sandown. Wide draw here. Will need plenty of luck.

Last start finished fourth in a Grade 4/5 on April 29 over 600m at this track behind Nigel Devere, beaten 5 lengths (34.87). Prefer in something easier.
