Healesville Race 10 - Gorski Engineering (1-2 Wins)

ESPECIAL KIANI (1) was well supported last time but could only manage second (17.09), beaten a neck. Has never been out of the placings from three starts out of this box. Expected to feature in the finish again. JAZZ BAND (7) finds it hard to break through. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (17.35) at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to her name from five starts. Bold showing expected. NIGHTMARE GAVIN (8) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only a long neck from the winner Smokin' Lopez in second(17.22) at this track. Must be included in calculations. OPALINA (6) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only second (17.09) at this track over 300m. Overdue and expected to feature again.

Placed last time (17.35) at this track in a T3 RSTW, finishing third and beaten 3.5 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and three minors. Key chance and should go close.
