Warrnambool Race 8 - Cassign Design

PAW GUSTO (8) is a smart dog who flew the lids and cleared the pack from out wide, leading all the way to score (25.12) at Shepparton in Grade 4/5 over 450m. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Looks the one to beat. PAW ORTIZ (3) had been in great form but was out of the placings last run, finishing eighth (31.26) in a Grade 5 at The Meadows. Drifted back and never in it from the wide draw. Can do much better this time. PAW NATULLO (2) goes very well here starting eight times for three wins and three minors. Scored by 1.75 lengths last time (22.03) in a Grade 4/5 over 390m at Shepparton. Looks well placed here and among the chances. ASTON CASTLE (1) can sneak into the finish with the right run.
