Warragul Race 10 - Paua Of Buddy At Stud
NEVER SURRENDER (5) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (23.17) in a Grade 5 at this track. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. WHY NOT AVA (2) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (23.44) at this track over 400m. Expected to be in this for a long way. RUTHLESS SECRET (4) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind No Charge (23.27) in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Expected to be in this for a long way. SMOOTH BEAUTY (8) placed last start from this box and is in the mix again.
