PBD WE LOVE OUR DOGS ( N/P) STAKE PR2 DIVISION5
WIRRULLA HARRY (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (23.85) in a Grade 6 at Gawler. Form here at the trip sound including eight wins. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Should be very hard to beat this time. ANTECEDENT (5) was drawn the middle last start but pinged the lids and recorded an all-the-way win (20.25) at this track in a Other over 374y. Capable of going well again. BONNIE DIVA (8) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (20.52) last time in a Other at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Worth following up. LOCKABA NITRO (4) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Antecedent comes into this race in superb form, having won its last two starts at this track and distance, including an all-the-way victory. The middle draw is less of a concern given its demonstrated early pace, and the trainer's strong strike rate adds confidence. Its recent performances suggest it's peaking at the right time.
Despite a lack of detailed form data in the provided information, the form guide's strong endorsement and the trainer's excellent strike rate are significant. The comment 'Strong form has emerged from his last run' suggests a hidden upside not immediately apparent in the provided raw data. If he finds early speed, he could be a major player.
Bonnie Diva has a solid overall career record and has shown glimpses of form at this track and distance, despite recent unplaced runs. The wide box draw is generally favourable for this type of runner, allowing clear air. With a good jump, she has the ability to challenge the leaders.
Lockaba Nitro has shown glimpses of ability, including a recent minor placing at this track and distance. While recent form is inconsistent, a good start from box 3 could see her in a prominent position. The trainer's form is reasonable, suggesting the dog is prepared.
Slipper's Appeal has a high number of career starts but a low win percentage, particularly in recent times. While the inside box can be an advantage, her recent form suggests she's struggling to compete at this level. The analyst comment also indicates she's 'tested under these conditions'.
Searing Lass is an older dog with a very low win percentage and poor recent form, consistently finishing out of the placings. The wide box draw offers little advantage given her current performance levels. She appears to be well past her best and is unlikely to feature.
