Healesville Race 9 - Central Scaffords (300+ Rank)

SHOW BOAT JOHNNY (1) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fifth (22.95) at Ballarat in a T3 RSTW. Can turn form around here. MAJOR LOSE (4) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 1.5 lengths into second (22.58) at Warrnambool in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win over 390m. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Expected to feature again. BE LIVELY (5) was narrowly beaten when placing two back but missed the frame latest finishing fifth (17.25) in a T3 Grade 7 at this track. Expected to bounce back to best. WHY NOT FLOSSIE (7) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Hit the frame latest (23.24) when second at Warragul in a Rank Limit - Grade 7. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (23.38) over 400m at Warragul. Has to overcome a wide draw but is among the better hopes.
