Redcliffe Race 3

Stevie Redback Pest Control Pace

Stake: $7,192

RADIANT AMBER (5) is in good form with top-five finishes at her last seven starts, most recently recording a second over 2040m at this track. Meets a comparable field so she can add to the impressive recent efforts. ZAC DANIELS (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fourth over 1780m here. No excuses from this advantageous draw and is good enough to win a race of this calibre. DENVER COLORADO (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by one metre at this course over 2040m. Top-three conveyance. BLACKJACK BART (2) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when third at this venue over 1780m. Can earn some minor money again.

Last start was well back in the run when 4th (Fr5) over 1780m at this track, beaten 6 m by Missed Consequences (2:09.80) in 3yo+ NR 48 to 55 on January 8 at $5.50. Before that, 5th (Fr3) over 2040m after racing wide at this track beaten 2.5 m by Denver Colorado (2:34.10) in 3yo+ NR 54 to 62 on January 1 at $19. Has a low draw and should go well.

Solid run when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Moops at this track over 1780m in a NR up to 75 on December 17 at $2.40. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Denver Colorado at this track over 2040m in a 3yo+ NR 54 to 62 on January 1 at $5. Top contender based on recent form.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.75 m third behind Beachride at this track over 1780m 3yo+ NR up to 75 last start. Before that was beaten 2.25 metres third again at this track over 2040m in 3yo+ NR 54 to 62 on January 1. One of the better chances.
