Warrnambool Race 6 - Margaret Lucas Galleywood Hrdl
HIGHLAND BLAZE (1) is building a top record over the jumps, with four wins and a placing from five tries - all with Jordan Hart aboard. Won only try over this course and distance. Has been racing on the flat but is ready for the jumps now and looks the one to beat. ENCHANTED ELLE (3) also boasts a strong jumps record and appeals as the main threat. Back at home now and will take running down. KARBURAN (5) is a promising jumper who was a three-length maiden hurdle winner fresh then well fancied last time but ran below expectations, finishing fourth. Fitter and better for it. Gets chance to atone. THE STORYTELLER (6) comes into this on the back of an impressive jumps debut, scoring at Terang in heavy going. Has upside and is expected to measure up. FABALOT (2) is overdue and can feature in the finish with the right run.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming ran on from midfield and won by 3 len this track Mdn Hdle-Sw on March 26 over 3200m slow track defeating Balinor with 69.5kg at $3.40 in a hurdle. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily finished fourth of 7 runners at Terang Bm115 Hdle on April 19 over 3200m, on rain affected going; 14 len behind Golden Crusader carrying 71kg at $2.90.
