Geelong Race 4 - Etu Vic Veterans
BORACAY STORM (3) is a talented type progressing through the grades and building a strong record. Has been on speed to score at his last couple of runs. Scored latest at Shepparton in a handy 25.12. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. The hardest to beat again. IDYLLIC JAMES (2) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 425m at Bendigo in a speedy 24.01 two back then following up with a 19.51 win at Healesville over 350m last time. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. LIGHTNING JEWEL (7) was in traffic and took a tumble last time but prior to that was a Veteran race H winner in quick time (22.55) at Warragul in a Veteran race H. Can measure up this time. SORRY I'M LATE (4) cannot be left out after placing last start.

Recorded a 2.25 lengths win (22.45) in a Grade 5 last time at Ballarat. Strong record off the draw with four wins and five minors from 10 starts. Will need some luck to feature.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (23.32) at Horsham over 410m. Close-up last time but this is a stern test.
