Illawarra Grange Race 2 - Wests Illawarra Provincial Mdn Hcp
COCO DIOR (1) consistent mare resuming who can get the Maiden win out of the way quickly this time in. Was a month between runs when she savaged the line to finish a close-up second over 1300m at Kembla Grange last April. Was a recent trial winner over the 800m here and gets every chance from the draw. SLANDER (6) resumes. Showed his ability on debut in the soft (7) conditions when he sat on the speed for a fighting second over 1100m at Hawkesbury last May. From an in-form yard and primed with two good trials. Has the class to overcome the sticky gate. BLUE METEOR (7) lightly raced colt who resumes, and is now in the Matthew Vella stable. Jumped in grade at his second race start when eighth in the G3 David Coles Stakes over 1200m at Morphettville last May. Presents with the two trials and must be kept safe. POMELO CHAMOMILE (11) was strong through the line first up when second over 1000m at Tuncurry. Has the upside to go on with it despite drawing poorly.

Racing well recently. At the latest run sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 in a Prov Mdn at Gosford on August 28 over 1000m, slow going 0.5 len behind Shimano with 58kg at $3.30. The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 in a Prov Mdn-Sw at Gosford on August 6 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Parthenon with 57kg at $6. Deep into the prep and worth thought.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 10 in a 2yo Mdn-Sw at Hawkesbury on May 14 over 1100m, slow going neck behind Dashing Splendour with 57kg at $3.20. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Excellent debut and primed with the two good trials, go close.
