Warrnambool Race 9 - Paddy Want Pats (1-2 Wins)(300+ Rank)
MAXIMUM GAYLE (3) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (22.46) last time in a Rank Limit - Grade 7 at Ballarat. Has ability and can bounce back. AVERAGE RETURN (6) failed to feature last start after being shuffled back early at Geelong, but prior to that won by a neck at this track (22.47) beating Paw Jessabelle in a Bottom Up - Grade 7 on March 9. The form from her last run stacks up well. Expected to feature in the finish. LILLY'S WISH (4) comes off an average run last start when fifth at Horsham over 410m behind Starbright Hud (23.82) in a Mix 6/7. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Expected to feature in the finish. RITA SKEETER (8) can sneak into the finish.

Showing promise but missed the frame last start when eighth at Geelong. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Looks tested and others preferred this time.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished fourth on March 16 over 400m at Geelong behind Eccentric Mona, beaten 6 lengths (23.65) in a Bottom Up - Grade 7. Prefer to watch at this stage.
