MAKING ME CRAZY (2) started at $4.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1006m. Hard to beat in this suitable race. FLORIDA GATOR (5) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1006m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. MSHINDI (4) finished fifth two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1207m at Mahoning Valley, beaten only 0.8 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. WILL E SUTTON (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when fifth over 1609m at Mahoning Valley, beaten 15 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can run a bold race.

Racing well recently. Most recently 3rd in a small field at this track on April 27 over 1006m, 4 len behind More Love with 54kg at $8.30. The start before that 4th in a small field at Mahoning Valley on April 6 over 1207m, 1.1 len behind Strike The Top with 56kg at $2. Nice effort last time so worth following up.
