Healesville Race 5 - Grv Vicbred Series Ht1
SETTLE FOR LESS (3) ran the fastest on the card last time scoring by 6 lengths (30.98) at Ballarat. Looks to have an edge on most of these. GRETA'S GOLD (2) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only 1.3 lengths from Ithacan Goddess in second (19.33) at this track. Was a winner at her only start from this draw. Will give a great sight again. HEAD HUNTER (5) lines up chasing another win after sizzling around this track over 350m in 19.24 on February 11. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. BEELINE (1) has strong credentials at this circuit over this journey.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (24.50) at Bendigo over 425m. Looks a solid hope.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 3 length fourth (19.25) over 350m at this track. Prepared to overlook.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 350m at this track. Not keen, needs to lift.
