Grafton Race 4 - Phil Mclennan Earthmoving
LIVING LEGEND (7) is a well performed dog and winner of seven races who was in the minor money last time out at this track (25.61). Has a strong winning record here at this journey. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Top chance in this line up. BENNY TRICK (4) slotted in just off the lead from the wide box before lifting strongly to score (25.54) at this track in Grade 5 over 450m. The form out of his last race has been franked. Significant danger. GOLDSTAR TYSON (5) turned in a fair 5th placed finish last time at this track over 450m (25.66). Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Expected to give a good account. SO REFINED (1) is always hard to beat when she races here at this trip.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (25.52) over 457m at Q Lakeside. Has the inside draw and is among the better hopes.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 350m at this track. Happy to risk this time.

Good performance after tracking the speed to win by one length at this track over 450m (25.54) beating My Warrior in Grade 5 on October 16. Can make it two on the bounce.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 450m. Last start finished 3rd in a Grade 4/5 on October 22 over 450m at this track behind Blow Bayou beaten 4.5 lengths (25.61). Coming out of a very strong form race. Expected to go well.

Unplaced in six tries at this track. Last start 5th over 450m at this track. Likely to find this too tough.
