Healesville Race 3 - Montrose IGA Liquor Damsels Dash
DEADLY FORCE (2) flew the lids off the inside draw with a fast early split and gave a sight, finishing a one length second (19.54) over 350m at this track. Deserves serious consideration. UPENDED (6) made light work of a wide draw last time with a scorching early sectional and clocking 25.78 in a half a length win at Geelong over 460m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Significant danger. LIGHTNING JEWEL (5) has been out of the placings the last couple but was a Veteran race H winner (22.55) three back at Warragul. Key player on best and worth another try. GUARDIAN (1) has strong claims after a long-odds top-three finish last time out.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 350m. Last start finished 2nd in a Grade 5 on July 19 over 300m at this track behind Frozen Winter beaten half a length (16.78). Solid showing expected.

Hasn't raced since finishing in the minors over 350m at this track in 19.54 nine weeks ago. Has a solid fresh up record having won two times and placing two runs from five starts. Looks well placed here and expected to go close.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 350m at this track. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

In hot form winning her last four on end, the latest pinging the lids with a fast early split and clocking 23.41 over 410m at Horsham. In a purple patch of form and likely to run well again.

Was out of placings last time (23.36) at Geelong in a Special conditions Veteran race, finishing seventh and beaten 14 lengths. Strong record off the draw with five wins and two minors from 10 starts. Looks a leading chance.
