Warragul Race 8 - Download The Watchdog App
DADDY COOL (3) continued his winning form with another strong run after running them ragged to make it two on end at this track over 400m (22.46). Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. BUBBA RAY BANNER (1) goes very well this trip starting 15 times for five wins and four minors. Placed last time (19.79) at Traralgon in a Grade 4/5, finishing second and beaten 4 lengths. Can feature in the finish. HOKKAIDO EXPRESS (2) has a strong record this journey here with three wins and a minor from six starts. Was out of the placings last time (22.62) at Shepparton in a Free For All, finishing seventh and beaten 6 lengths. Looks suited here and can measure up. GALLOPING HAPPY (8) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but he does have good record over this track and distance. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 2, scoring two times. Go close.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 400m at this track in a handy 22.46 beating Lakeview Liam. Boasts a course and distance PB in a dazzling 22.26. Top chance.

Disappointed last time but just missed the placings two back over 350m at Traralgon. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Did a good job two starts back at Sale to win by a neck in 24.72, beating Where's Nassif. Last start finished 5th over 425m at Traralgon beaten 2 lengths (24.42) behind Runway Blue in a Grade 4/5 on August 14. Others make more appeal.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (19.96) over 350m at Traralgon. Jumps from the outside. Prefer others.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Traralgon over 350m. Last start finished last over 400m at this track beaten 12 lengths (23.30) behind Daddy Cool in a Free For All on August 11. Is a danger.
