Seymour Race 1 - Cub Mdn Plate
LA REINA VEGA (7) has just found one better in both starts, backed into $1.35 last time at Pakenham Synthetic when just nosed out. Better for that again and we get a much better price this time for the top yard. Can atone. KEEN OBSERVER (5) is in the same boat with two narrow defeats to date, good on similar ground at Geelong last time when beaten under half a length. Shinn sticks from the inside gate, he'll be very hard to run down. They look the clear two chances and the others would need them to underperform significantly but TOMMY'S LASS (9) is coming along well and was good here last time. AUTUMN IN GRINZING (6) could be an improver this time in.

Was at very long odds at debut, got back early 7th of 9 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Geelong on August 14 over 1225m, on heavy track; 6 len behind Greenwich Boy with 58kg at $151. Very rough hope.

Raced two times to date. When well in the market at debut, came from midfield; 2nd of 7 in a 2yo Mdn-Sw at this track on July 19 over 1200m, on a wet track; long-neck behind Dustee with 56kg at $2.20. Second-up 2nd in a small field in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Pakenham Synthetic on August 10 over 1400m, nose behind Utopic Future with 56kg at $1.35. Brings the right form to the table. Set to go one better.
