Grafton Race 3 - Ladbrokes Popular Srm 1-3 Win Ht 2 H
BURNSIDE BOOKIE (2) flew the lids with a slick early split last time and went on to clock 30.23 as a strongly fancied winner over 520m at Wentworth Park. Form from his last run is proving strong. Form reads well for this. LOLLIPOP VALLEY (3) finished midfield on debut (17.62) then better for the experience broke through last time to score a nose maiden win (20.14) at this track. Can make it back-to-back wins. ROBELL SETH (1) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (20.48) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. FLASHING PAST (7) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Could only manage fourth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (20.32) over 350m at this track. Boxed out wide and prefer each-way.

Showed good improvement when third behind King Kermaro at Taree Super Track last start over 300m (17.91). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.
