Healesville Race 8 - Sportsbet Supporters Of Having A Crack
MAGIC WESTERN (2) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (16.80) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Look for sharp improvement here. RING A HOUDINI (7) goes very well here starting 17 times for eight wins and four minors. Hit the frame latest (26.03) when third at Warragul in a Grade 4/5. Can feature with the right run. RHYTHMIC ENERGY (1) ran below best last time finishing eighth (28.72) over 500m at Bendigo from Box 6. The form out of his last race has been franked. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. SUPER TONE (3) is always hard to beat when he races at this trip.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (26.03) at Warragul over 460m. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.
