Kochi Race 9 - Race 9 - 1400
GRAN RAISINS DORES (10) returns from a break of 11 weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a second over 1600m at this track. Ideally placed to score while fresh. CARRY HAPPINESS (2) fought on for second last start over 1300m at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Goes up a rung or two but he is capable of running a bold race. AURA BILLS (5) finished third last time over 1300m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Yet to miss the placings from nine starts at this circuit. Placed to advantage and can take this out. PROTEA (9) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 1400m at this track. Yet to miss the placings at this circuit, including five wins. Solid claims on best form.

Last start set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 7 at this track on February 17 over 1600m, 4.5 len behind Derma Azrael with 57kg at $2.30. Before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 9 at this track on January 20 over 1600m, 11 len behind Vendaval Y Rabiar carrying 57kg at $6.50. Nice alley and worth including.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd of 8 at this track on February 23 over 1300m, 2 len behind Bix with 57kg at $2.60. The race before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 10 at this track on February 11 over 1300m, 1.0 len behind Piston Boy carrying 57kg at $1.90. Sure to be tough to beat from an inside alley.

At the latest run 4th of 8 at this track on February 23 over 1300m, 4 len behind Bix with 57kg at $4.20. The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.0 len at this track February 11 over 1300m defeating Carry Happiness carrying 57kg at $6.30. Might just find this lot a bit smart.
