Warrnambool Race 5 - Wannon Function Centre
BLANKET GAME (6) had the drop on the lead from the rails draw last start but could only manage third, beaten 5.5 lengths (26.09) at Geelong in a Mix 6/7 over 460m. Overdue and gets his chance. PADDY'S CHARIOT (7) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 1.5 lengths at this track in a handy 25.66 beating Aston Alert. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Leading chance again. PAW OLTRON (2) produced a moderate effort last time when seventh at Geelong over 460m behind Paw Isla (26.61) in a Mix 6/7. Placed at his previous run. Cannot be taken lightly. FLYING OFFSHORE (1) was in the money last start as favourite - poses a threat again.

Well supported last time and gave a sight after a fast early split but could manage only the minor money, finishing a nose second (31.44) over 545m at Ballarat. Boxed on well last time to hit the frame. Rates highly again.

Got off the mark three back with his maiden win at Geelong. Placed following that before a last start seventh at Geelong. Suited here and expected to bounce back.

Was out of placings last time (22.58) at this track in a Mix 6/7 H, finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Has ability and should be around the money.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by half a length at this track (22.69) beating Rev Ken in a Grade 7 on January 22. Thereabouts last start but looks tested this time.

Poor last start but ran a better race two back when fourth over 500m at Bendigo. Likely to find this too tough.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 450m in 25.66 last start, beating Aston Alert. Comes through a solid form race. Expected to feature.
