Grafton Race 7 - Phil Mclennan Earthmoving Max 150 Points Ht 3 H
JAY SANDS (8) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing seventh (20.79) in a Grade 5 at this track. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Ready to return to form. ORSON ROCKET (4) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 5 lengths (17.55) at Casino. Better than last start and can bounce back. UNRECOVERABLE (5) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 5th (25.99) at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Should be in this for a long way. BOKARM QUINN (7) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Has finished eighth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 7 lengths behind Naval Choice over 350m. Prepared to risk.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage eighth last time out over 300m at Casino. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Latest effort finished 4th over 300m at Casino beaten 5 lengths (17.55) behind Split Minds in a Grade 5 on September 21. Should prove hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (25.99) at this track in a Mix, finishing fifth and beaten 2.25 lengths. Has two placings from three starts from the draw. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Last start finished last over 350m at this track beaten 9 lengths (20.79) behind Dancing Gambler in a Grade 5 on September 25. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to do much better.
