Geelong Race 7 - Melbourne Container Park (1-2 W) (300+)

NALA'S MANTIS (2) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (23.56) in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. BEND YOUR EAR (1) jumped from out wide and was game in defeat last start when a one length third (17.12) behind Major Illusion at Healesville. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings eight times from nine attempts. Winning chance. ASTON ADRIANA (7) finds it hard to break through. Finished in the money last time though when third (23.25) at this track. Can feature again. JOCK'S LEGEND (8) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

In the money last time at Healesville (17.12) in a T3 Grade 6, finishing a one length third. Goes very well from the draw boasting eight places from nine starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
