Warragul Race 9 - Paua Of Buddy At Stud
SAND DUNES (1) finds it hard to win. Finished in the money last time though when third (23.42) at this track. Form here sound including three wins. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. One of the leading chances. RHINE STAR (4) broke from the inside draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only 1.75 lengths (23.14) behind Big Player at this track. Must be included in calculations. WARRIOR TOMMY (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing seventh (23.85) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 at this track. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. INVICTUS BLUE (5) looks an each-way chance.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 390m at Shepparton. Prefer to watch at this stage.
