Geelong Race 1 - Melbourne Container Park
SWANKY FRANKY (8) finished midfield on debut when fifth (26.56) at this track over 460m. Better for the run and makes appeal this time. PAW VANCE (1) is a newcomer for the Daniel Gibbons kennel. Drawn favourably and can capitalise. Lot to like about his profile and expected to run well. SECRET PARTY (2) is on debut without trialling for this. Expected to feature on debut. BIG WATCH (3) placed at long odds last time and cannot be ignored.

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd on February 6 over 425m at Bendigo behind Mr. Devere beaten 7 lengths (24.42) in a Maiden. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

Finished third at big odds last time (25.66) over 450m at Ballarat. Will need plenty of luck.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (25.75) over 450m at Ballarat. Drawn wide. One of the better hopes.

Turned in a fair debut over 460m at this track where he settled on speed and faded late to finish fifth (26.56). Should be further improved. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.
