CELEBRATING MICHAEL HAYES TROT 2190m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
I AM HARRO (6) is in good form at present. Finished third at his latest appearance over 2150m at Bendigo, beaten 3.5 metres. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. CHANTILLY LASS (10) could only manage second last start over 1710m at Ballarat, beaten 11 metres, after a win at the previous appearance over 2190m at Maryborough. Draws out a little on the second line and may need luck at some point. Big chance if anywhere near her best. MAORI TATTOO (7) is right in contention after finishing in the placings for the second time in a row last start, beaten a neck into second at Bendigo. No reason why he cannot take this out. MISTA WALKER (2) found one better two runs back then made mistakes last time when he broke and finished 30 metres back in sixth over 1710m at Ballarat. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a similar line up so if he behaves a big run is likely.
