Geelong Race 8 - Sportsbet Feed (300+Rank)
BLACK TYCOON (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (25.97) in a Grade 5 at Ballarat. Has a good record at this journey. Ready to return to form. JUNGLE FIREBALL (8) turned in a plain effort last time when seventh at this track over 400m behind Paw Vanna (23.77) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5. Better than last start and can bounce back. BLOW TORCH (1) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (26.39) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Warrnambool. Rates a winning chance on best. AMRON BUSTER (2) cannot be ruled out.
