Geelong Race 5 - Topcat Video Productions (250+ Rank)
DOONGALLA AL (3) dropped out early but hit the line hard, charging into third and beaten 0.9 lengths win (22.16) at Shepparton in Grade 4/5. Expected to feature in the finish again. JUST BELIEVE (8) has been out of the placings at her last couple of runs but impressed when posting a brilliant 22.55 over 400m at this track three starts back. Smart winner three back and looks a key chance on that form. BLACKPOOL FINN (7) missed the frame last time out when fifth at this track from Box eight (22.60) but draws same box here as latest win. Has a good record here at this journey. Should be about the mark. EAT YOUR SPINACH (1) recorded a handy 22.22 win last start. In form and worth including.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fourth (25.43) over 450m at Shepparton. Is a danger.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 0.9 lengths third (22.16) over 390m at Shepparton. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Go close on his best form.

Could manage only eighth last time but turned heads the start prior when she clocked a slick 16.79 over 300m finishing third at Healesville. Warrants respect on latest.

Missed the frame latest (22.67) when sixth over 400m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting five victories and four places from 14 starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
