Healesville Race 11 - Thank You District 13 Firies (1-4W)
WALTZING DIABLO (3) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (19.53) from Box 8 at this track. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Sure to be about the mark. TEST DRIVE (2) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Finished second (19.36) at this track last time making it two minors on end. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to his name from four starts. Well placed and gets his chance. BIG PLAYER (7) goes very well at the course with two wins and a placing from six starts. Recorded a 2 length win (16.64) in a T3 Grade 6 last time at this track. Suited here and expected to run well. PAW OLIVE (1) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fourth (25.91) over 450m at Shepparton. Is a danger.

Went down narrowly in a Mix 6/7 at this track latest when a neck second but did record a fast 19.36 over the 350m journey. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 1.3 lengths second over 350m this track in 19.53. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Good effort last time when third (26.02) over 450m at Ballarat. Awkward draw to overcome. Others preferred.

Has finished sixth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 5.5 lengths behind Panther's Way over 350m. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2 lengths over 300m at this track in a handy 16.64, beating Getting Nervous. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Resumes from a five months spell and was in the minors at only other fresh up run, finishing second over 425m at Bendigo. In form and expected to run well again.
