Warrnambool Race 2 - Cassign Design
TOKYO ROMANCE (1) hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a one length second over 390m at this track, clocking 22.89. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Must come into calculations. PAW DANGER (8) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 5 lengths into third (22.44) at Ballarat in a Maiden over 390m. Leading player again. MOLLY ROCHELLE (7) jumped from out wide and was game in defeat last start when a 1.75 lengths third (22.65) behind Ocean Gold at this track. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Overdue and is among the main hopes. PETITE LEE (2) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 22.89 over 390m at this track. Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.

Last start finished seventh over 390m at Ballarat, beaten 18 lengths (23.31) behind Paw Gusto in a Maiden on January 21. Racing well and has to be included.

First starter by Feral Franky from Dazzling Bling. Trained by Rebecca Gibbons. Might pay to watch for a market push.

Showed good early speed on debut over 400m at Warragul, leading early before fading to finish fifth (23.40). Should be further improved. Others make more appeal.

First starter by Whiskey Riot from Sekola. From the Paul Abela kennel. Keep a close eye on the market.

Hit the frame latest (22.65) when third at this track in a Maiden. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Is a three start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when third (22.44) over 390m at Ballarat. Was on pace and game in defeat. Expected to prove tough to beat.
