Geelong Race 11 - Onthestraight.com.au
SPECIAL LAD (3) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 390m at Ballarat in a fast 22.25 on June 10. Smart win latest and looks a key chance again here. CORA MAC (2) has a strong winning strike-rate here with three wins and a placing from seven tries. Was out of placings last time (30.74) at Cannington in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 2.25 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. ASTON FUMIKO (1) ran below best last time finishing fourth (22.50) over 390m at Warrnambool from Box 2. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Likely to be about the money. BUSH BIG SHOW (7) has strong credentials over this journey.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 2.25 lengths fourth (30.74) over 520m at Cannington. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by one length at Ballarat over 390m (22.25) beating Aussie Wagyu in Grade 5 H on June 10. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Missed the frame last time when sixth (25.47) at Maitland. Prior to that had been racing well. Tough draw to overcome and needs to find best form to feature.

Hit the frame latest (23.36) when second at Horsham in a Mix 3/4. Box stats strong with two wins and two placings from five starts. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won easily by 7 lengths at Ballarat (21.95) beating Aston Francesca in a Grade 5 on June 8. Is a danger.
