Warrnambool Race 7 - Paddy Wants Pats
NAUGHTY NORM (6) comes off a solid 23.30 placing at Horsham over 410m. Hard to top on the time from last start. STAR FURY (1) was below best last time at this track (22.62) in a Grade 4, finishing a 5 length seventh. Has an unbeaten record from this draw, scoring three times. Makes strong appeal on best. BUSH MAYHEM (2) was out of in the placings when fourth last time but three runs back posted a slick 22.12 win over 390m at this track. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. MISCHIEF MATE (5) must be included in main hopes on latest effort.

Won two starts back over 390m at Ballarat. Last start he finished 7th in a Grade 4 on May 14 over 390m at this track behind Mischief Mate beaten 5 lengths (22.62). Draw likely to suit. Yet to be beaten in three starts out of this box. Sure to go well.

Was a winner three back at this track then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (22.52) at this track. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 350m at Traralgon in a handy 19.66 beating Dr. Erica. Rates among the chances this time.

Missed the frame latest (24.11) when fourth over 425m at Bendigo in a Grade 5 H. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Good performance to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 390m (22.26) beating Come And See in Grade 4 on May 14. Strongly fancied last time and lived right up to expectations. Stick with him.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (23.30) at Horsham over 410m. Overdue for a win and gets his chance this time.

Missed the frame last start when seventh but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability and worth including among the chances.

Jumped safely when finishing eighth over 390m at this track. Won an easier race the start before that at this track. Others make more appeal.
