Albion Park Race 6

Queensland Derby H

Stake: $13,530

STOWAWAY (2) missed the frame last time when sixth (30.77) in a Grade 5 at this track after a slow start and settling well off the pace. Hit the ground running and placed (30.77) at this track the start prior. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. SLIPPERY'S WAY (1) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 5 lengths (30.51) at this track. Got the money at his only try from this box. Key player if finds best. SHAMROCK HAYZE (8) broke a three run winning streak last start when sixth and beaten 2.75 lengths (31.06) last time at this track. Has a strong winning record at this journey. The form out of his last race has been franked. Can measure up this time. WRECK JAMES (3) was well fancied last time on the strength of his recent form but could only manage second (30.61) at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Well placed and gets his chance.

Was a winner three back at this track then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (30.51) at this track. Makes plenty of appeal on best and can easily atone here.

Missed the frame last start when a 8 length sixth (30.77) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at Ipswich. Best figures puts him right in this and well worth another chance.

Well supported last time and gave a sight after a fast early split but could manage only the minor money, finishing a 3 length third (30.58) over 520m at Ipswich. Last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.

Showing promise but missed the frame last start when fifth at Casino. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 2 lengths in 30.17, beating Crab Pot. Last start finished last over 520m at this track beaten 10 lengths (30.64) behind Affluent in a OPEN on December 12. Likely to find this too tough.
