Healesville Race 8 - Spinners Souvlaki Bar And Grill
TROPIC MAN (6) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 350m. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Well placed and will be tough to beat. CATHY'S DREAM (1) finds it hard to break through. Has been in the money the last three starts, the latest when third (19.74) at this track. Well-placed to take this out. BONDED (7) was game in defeat off a low draw at the latest outing, finishing second and beaten one length (23.08) behind Smiling Lily at Geelong. Bold showing expected. DONEGAL EXPRESS (3) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a sixth over 400m at Warragul. Looks up against it this time.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (17.28) over 300m at this track. Aided by a low draw and in the mix on his best form.

Flew the lids with a fast early split and went on to clock 19.60 when a half a length winner over 350m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 10 lengths at Ballarat. Form solid prior to that including a win at Ballarat three back. Has ability but will need everything to go right.
