Sale Race 4 - Stratford Marine

PLAY LAB (7) was below best last time but prior to that was narrowly beaten when sixth (16.87) in a Grade 5 H at Healesville. Will find this more suitable and can atone. DR. HOPPER (2) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at Traralgon, scoring by a neck (33.16). Deserved serious consideration again. OLIVER KELTON (1) goes very well this trip starting 12 times for four wins and seven minors. Was out of placings last time (19.56) at Healesville in a Grade 4/5, finishing sixth and beaten 7 lengths. Looks one of the chances. MATILDA ROSE (4) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can atone.

Missed the frame latest (19.56) when sixth over 350m at Healesville in a Grade 4/5. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looks well placed and should feature.
