Healesville Race 8 - We Stand With Tasmania

BLAME ESMERALDA (1) turned in a solid run last start over 350m at this track finishing 5th and beaten only 4 lengths (19.69). Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. BRUREE LUCK (5) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (19.57) at this track over 350m. Bold showing expected. JACK'S REGRET (2) stuck on well last time to finish 1.5 lengths back in second (22.62) at Warrnambool in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 over 390m. The form out of last race has been strong. Hard to beat again. SUMMER HAIL (8) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.
