Geelong Race 4 - Etu Vic (275+ Rank)

IT JUST HAPPENS (7) had to overcome a collision with another runner and could manage only a distant fifth (24.66) in a Grade 5 over 425m at Bendigo. Rates a top chance on best. PAW YURI (3) has a strong winning strike-rate here with two wins and a placing from five tries. Missed the frame latest (23.41) when seventh over 400m at Warragul in a Grade 5 H. Among the main chances. LITTLE MISS MAY (4) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (22.95) last time in a Grade 5 at Ballarat. One of the main contenders. CRACKERJACK GREG (6) placed last time and wasn't beaten far - worth considering.

Didn't make the placings last time at Warragul (23.41) in a Grade 5 H, finishing a 14 length seventh. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Looks well placed and should feature.
