Q1 Lakeside Race 11 - Www.theq.au 5Th Grade H
SWIFT CANNON (1) comes off a (19.54) win last time, scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Grade 5 over 352m at this track. Looks well placed and should feature. OPTIMALITY (3) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths (19.90) behind Unique Ability at this track. Bold showing expected. WISE RICO (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing seventh (22.58) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. JACK'S THING (7) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.
