Q1 Lakeside Race 4 - Young Gunners H
SHOWMAN BAZ (1) won again in another strong performance after leading making it three on end, scoring by 3 lengths (22.20) at Bulli over 400m. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Form reads well for this. ZIPPING KRAVITZ (2) comes here following a sizzling win over 366m at Capalaba in 19.73. Smart winner latest and looks a key chance on that form. BACKCREEK BUTCH (8) comes off a (25.10) win last time, scoring by 3 lengths in a OPEN over 457m at this track. Looks a key chance on best figures. DRAMATICAL (5) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by a neck over 366m at Capalaba in a handy 19.73, beating Zipping Lipa. Looks the one to beat again.

Dominant winner to score by 6 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at Temora, recording a lightning 25.39 for the 457m journey. Harder here but warrants respect on latest.
