Race preview
PECO (2) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and five placings from 13 starts. Hit the frame latest (26.07) when third at Hobart in a Grade 4/5. Looks well placed and should feature. DEADLY GRIN (1) hit the frame last time at Hobart but the start prior rocketed around 340m at Hobart in 19.42. Top win two back and can measure up again. PARTY POPPER (8) continues to race in super honest form hitting the frame at 18 of 40 career runs, winning two back before finishing third last time (26.23) over 461m at Hobart. Form here sound including eight wins. Expected to feature on best form. BUCKLE UP TAJA (7) comes off a big run when finishing second in a strong 29.79 last time. Has claims on that run.
