Warragul Race 8 - Paua Of Buddy At Stud
FERNANDO DUKE (6) spotted a start but wound up strongly late and finished third and beaten 6 lengths (22.34) at Ballarat in Special conditions H. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to his name from seven starts. One of the leading chances. SWEET NUGGET (1) missed the frame last time but had been racing well prior to that, winning a Grade 5 three back before a placing at this track the following run. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. CANYA JIVE (8) is having his first look at this track. Missed the frame last time when 4th and beaten 2.5 lengths (22.45) at Warrnambool. Likely to be about the money. SPICY ASSASSIN (7) placed last start at this track and distance and is in the mix again.

Backs up after winning by half a length at this track (26.27) beating Iron Tyson in a Grade 5 on June 5 five days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.

Working his way into winning form after his success on April 7 at Sandown over 515m. Last start was third over 390m in 22.34, behind Needful. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Latest effort finished 4th over 390m at Warrnambool beaten 2.5 lengths (22.45) behind Paw Yonder in a Grade 4/5 on June 4. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.
