Healesville Race 7 - Sportsbet Same Race Multi

MAJOR ILLUSION (2) finished in the minors last start over the 350m at this track but ran a sharp 19.34 last start. Expected to push the clock again here. NEGATIVE NIBBS (6) missed the frame but ran a sharp fifth at this track over 300m in 16.77. Has the ability and looks a key chance. GROOT BALE (7) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by a neck at Horsham in a handy 23.58 beating Inga Johnny. One of the prime contenders. SHIMA STRIPE (4) will be thereabouts after recent top-three finishes.
