Casino Race 8 - Cgrc 90Th Anniversary
MCKEON (6) has a strong record this trip with 16 wins and seven placings from 28 starts. Placed last time (19.90) at Grafton in a Grade 4/5, finishing second and beaten 1.75 lengths. Has the ability and should feature. FIRE ME UP (7) is a well performed dog and winner of 23 races who is worth forgiving after finishing out of the placings at Q Lakeside (25.97). Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. TUB STAR (1) was below best at his last start when 8th at Q Parklands following a second place finish (30.46) there two back. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. BLUE ART (2) has been a model of consistency and deserves plenty of thought.

Won over this track and trip. Latest effort finished last over 520m at Q Parklands beaten 12 lengths (30.97) behind Hara's Frankie in a Grade 5 on March 15. Was in the money three on end before missing the frame last time. Worth another try.

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd in a Free For All on March 13 over 390m at Q Lakeside behind From A Distance beaten 1.5 lengths (21.97). Thereabouts at her last couple and is capable of better.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 4/5 at Grafton when a 1.75 lengths second but did run a brilliant 19.90 over the 350m journey. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.
