Q Straight Race 12 - Garrards Horse And Hound
SMOOTH SUPREME (1) went down narrowly last time, finishing a neck second behind Rapid Spitfire in 16.85 and recording a new PB this course and distance. Smart run latest and looks a key chance here. BIG OPERATOR (4) has been in super consistent form recently with three minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fifth (16.95) at this track. Better than last start and can bounce back. VELOCITY YIN (2) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at this track over 350m behind Velocity Smolder (19.72) in a Grade 5. Should be in this for a long way. DO RUN BANDI (6) can sneak into the finish while fresh.

Hit the frame latest (16.85) when second at this track in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks a leading chance.

Missed the frame last time but was narrowly beaten at big odds two back when second (16.78) over 300m at this track. Has a decent strike-rate from the draw and capable of a better result.
