Albion Park Race 2

Pace With Mates Divided Open Pace

Stake: $23,516

TIMS A TROOPER (2) continued a string of wins and placings when he scored here two back then drew on the back row and covered ground in the latter stages when midfield last time, beaten less than 5 metres. The good draw gives him every chance to return to winning form. FREE THINKER (4) took advantage of the inside barrier to lead and win by 5.4 metres here last start. Draws a few spots wider but is going well. MANILA PLAYBOY (10) cops a second row draw but is flying at present with two successive wins here. With even luck he can keep the ball rolling. BRAEDOS LAD (11) cops a tougher draw but is ticking along well with placings in his last two outings.

Didn't do much last time out, was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr3) over 2138m at this track, beaten 10 m by Dele Row (2:31.70) in No NR on April 19 at $41. Before that 8th (Sr2) over 1660m at this track beaten 9 m by Manila Playboy (1:54.70) in No NR on April 12 at $151. This looks far too tough.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Sr3) over 1660m at this track, beaten 5 m by Manila Playboy (1:54.70) in No NR on April 12 at $3.90. Showed ability the race before when he won by a neck (Fr4) at this track (2:28.80) beating Deus Ex in No NR on April 5 at $6. Rates highly. Hard to beat from the low draw.

Good run when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Collect A Dime at this track over 1660m in a No NR on April 5 at $2.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing third behind Dele Row at this track over 2138m in a No NR on April 19 at $15. One of the exotic chances.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. Won by 1.4 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (2:34.10) beating Risk Taker in B 5 No NR on April 19 at $1.75. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into tenth after being driven well back, behind Free Thinker at this track over 1660m in a B 5 No NR on April 12 at $19. Place best.

Good performance when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind Manila Playboy at this track over 1660m in a No NR on April 12 at $6.50. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second after showing early speed, behind Wisper A Secret at this track over 1660m in a No NR on April 19 at $8. Should go well despite the tough draw.
