Warrnambool Race 6 - Matko Hire
ZYGON BALE (3) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 2.5 lengths at this track in a handy 25.25 beating PAW XENA. Boasts two wins from five starts out of this box. The one to beat again. PAW XENA (2) finished well back at Shepparton last time when a 8 length fifth (25.30) but scored five back at Ballarat (25.25). Has ability and a bold showing is expected. TALCOTT BALE (5) is a talented dog who is a winner of 15 races and filled a minor placing latest when second at Healesville (16.62). Must be included in calculations. SHANLYN SCOUT (1) is a last-start placegetter who should be thereabouts.

Won two starts back over 450m at Ballarat. Last start he finished 3rd in a Grade 4/5 on March 6 over 450m at this track behind Zygon Bale beaten 3 lengths (25.46). Draw likely to suit. Has the ability to be in the finish.

Eye-catching performance to score by 2.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 last start at this track, clocking an outstanding 25.25 for the 450m trip. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time.

In the money last time at Ballarat (25.50) in a Grade 5, finishing a 1.3 lengths second. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and three minors. Others appear better placed.

Could manage only seventh last time but turned heads the start prior when he recorded a fast 23.25 over 400m finishing third at Mt Gambier. Has ability but looks tested here.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 450m. Last start finished 3rd on March 3 over 450m at this track behind Aston Mai Tai beaten 4 lengths (25.98) in a Grade 4/5. Hasn't been far away. Don't underestimate.
