Warrnambool Race 8 - Wood Motorcycle And Mower (300+ Rank)
PHOENIX RED (3) has missed the frame the last couple but just a few runs back pushed the clock when winning over 390m at Ballarat, taking a Grade 5 in a quick 22.17. Has the ability and looks hard to top. GOLD STRIPES (6) hit the ground running from the squeeze draw with a strong early split last time, paving the way for a one length win at Ballarat over 390m in 22.35. Sure to measure up. SAINT XAVIER (8) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (22.78) last time in a Grade 5 at Ballarat. Has a good record here including eight wins. Can do much better this time. FREDDY DEEDS (2) could manage only fourth but in a solid 23.18 latest. Among the chances.

Has finished seventh at the last two runs, both at Ballarat, the latest when beaten 6 lengths behind Bush Circus over 390m. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 390m at this track. Prepared to risk this time.

Nearing another win after his success on February 26 at this track over 390m. Last start was fourth over 390m in 22.78, behind Moraine Grace. Yet to win but has been in the placings five times from this draw. Worth thought.
