Richmond Race 5

Flying Ricciardo At Stud

Stake: $2,495

ALWAYS BRAVE (1) lines up chasing another win after sizzling around this track over 401m in 22.74 on March 30. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest. MY FRIEND BEC (7) comes off a (18.27) win last time, scoring by 2.5 lengths in a Grade 5 over 320m at this track. Can feature in the finish. LAYLA'S LILLY (2) jumped well to win over the 401m at this track two runs back then raced on speed again when finishing second at this track last start. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Winning chance. TEMPT FATE (4) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Jumped well at this track two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at this track last start over 401m from this same draw. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.
