AU - Warrnambool - Race 3

The third of the maiden hurdles, and this one is also worth 50K. ARDAKAN (1) won a jumping trial prior to finishing runner-up as the favourite in his first race day start in this role. He has had a gear change, and with that run under his belt, he can go one better here. UNTETHERED (9) would have learned a lot from his first run in this role, which was 4 weeks ago at Hamilton, and he can be a quick improver here. Each-way. FENGARADA (2) did a good job fresh up when making his hurdle debut, and finishing fourth was a brave effort. With some better luck during the run this time, he can figure in the top 3. THE CLAIMANT (8) is trained on the track, and he has had plenty of schooling experience, including a couple of trials in this role last month. A big run is on the cards. HIGH HEELED (10) was a game fourth on debut in this role at Hamilton 4 weeks ago, and she would have been set for this assignment on her home track. Include in all top 4 combos.
