Grafton Race 7 - Phil Mclennan Earthmoving Bitches Only Ht 2 H
SPITFIRE REIGN (3) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a fast early split, paving the way for a 2 length win at this track over 350m in 19.97. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Expected to go well again. CAROM (1) is a fast beginner but out of character last time when always well back and missed the placings, finishing eighth (21.45) in a Grade 5 at this track. Was fast away and placed (21.45) at this track the start prior. Can figure in the finish. RIPPLE ROSE (8) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at Casino behind Martinique (16.96) in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Expected to feature. KICKER SPLASH (5) collected a minor prize last start as public elect - must be considered.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (21.45) in a Grade 5, finishing a 21 length eighth. Placed at all two starts from this draw. Looks suited and should go close.

Won two starts back then raced on the pace last start when she finished 2nd in a Grade 4/5 on October 19 over 300m at Casino behind Make A Rupee beaten one length (17.25). Goes well at this course, last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.
