Traralgon Race 8 - Gold 1242
CASH THE LOT (7) quickly into stride and found the front, leading until late when second (24.07) at this track in a Grade 5 over 425m. Winning claims. DR. ZAIDEN (8) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fourth (22.88) at Warragul. Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of three starts. One of the better chances. IT'S OKAY (3) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at The Meadows over 525m behind Paw Iowa (30.64) in a Grade 5. Placed at his previous run. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Warrants plenty of respect. BUFFALO COWBOY (1) is a last start winner who can measure up again.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split and ran away with a one length win at Bendigo over 425m in 24.24. Can make it two on the bounce.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 400m at Warragul. Not keen, needs to lift.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.5 lengths fourth (24.23) over 425m at this track. Not far away last time but this is a stiff test.

Having her first run at this track. Comes off an average run last start over 390m at Shepparton when fifth behind Rovaniemi (22.62) in Grade 5. Prefer to watch at this stage.
