Stawell Race 8 - Russ Studio Jewellers (Bm64)
GIN BABA (9) is flying and should be going awfully close again. Five second placings and one win from her past six starts, she finally broke the maiden two back at Ararat when scoring dominantly by nearly five lengths. She tried hard at Cranbourne last time and finds an easier race here. Rates highly. ALCOSHARE (3) has been okay in two runs back from a spell and should be ready to peak now. JET JITSU (5) resumes. He can reel off a late split on his day and isn't out of this if they overdo it up top. HASTA LA CHILLY (6) was better last time and has each way claims.

Second-up. First-up after eight months ran last of 9 at Avoca Bm64 on March 29 over 1200m, 7 len behind Thunder Park carrying 63.5kg at $61. Previously second-up 5th of 9 at Ballarat Bm64 on April 3 2024 over 1400m, slow going 11 len behind Liberty State carrying 63.5kg at $101. That run was a bit plain so prefer him later on.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up 6th of 9 at Warrnambool Bm64 on March 10 over 1100m, 6 len behind Mr Hansel with 62kg at $16. Second run from a spell raced on the pace before fading to run last of 8 at Donald Bm64 on April 7 over 1350m, 10 len behind Darts Daly with 61.5kg at $8.50. Wouldn't shock.

Going well. Most recently 2nd in a small field at Cranbourne F&M Bm64 on April 4 over 1300m, 0.5 len behind Prancing Queen with 58kg at $2.05. The race before that favourite; came from midfield and won by 5 len at Ararat Mdn-Sw March 27 over 1306m defeating Damas with 57.5kg at $3.30. Takes beating again.
