Geelong Race 7 - Melbourne Container Park
PAW WINKWORTH (8) has a strong record here with five wins and four placings from 13 starts. Was out of placings last time (30.66) at The Meadows in a Free For All, finishing eighth and beaten 13 lengths. Looks a key chance on best form. PAW FABLE (1) comes off an average performance last start when fifth at this track over 460m behind Mepunga Brockie (26.40) in a Grade 5 H. One of the better hopes. RETALIATION (4) scored well last start as odds-on favourite by a neck at Warragul in a handy 25.95 beating Short Straw Trev. Jumping from the pinch draw but likes the trip. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Bold showing expected again. SLICK FELIX (7) generally performs well from this box.

Eye-catching performance to post a big 5.5 lengths victory in a Grade 5 last start at Horsham, recording a superb 23.14 over the 410m journey. Should be in this for a long way.

Lines up chasing three wins on end after scoring over 450m at Ballarat in 25.18 last time, set up by a fast early sectional. Has ability and worth including.

Well supported last time and rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional, going on to clock 25.95 in a neck win at Warragul over 460m. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 410m at Horsham in a handy (23.41), beating Head For Home. Will find this a bit tougher, doesn't profile as a likely winner.
