Richmond Straight Race 6

Ladbrokes Dogs Only Ht 2 H

Stake: $2,495

DESPICABLE OTTO (6) was strongly fancied latest and proved too good with a 0.8 lengths win at this track in a handy 17.59. Awkwardly drawn but likes the trip. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Can continue the winning form. STRAIGHT OUT (1) was in the money again last time and not beaten far when second (18.12) at this track in a Grade 4/5. With a good start should be able to take advantage of the rails draw. Can turn it around this time. VICTORY BRAVO (2) boasts a strong record this journey with two wins and two minors from six tries. Missed the frame latest (23.46) when fifth over 401m at Richmond in a Grade 5. Can feature in the finish. HEAR ME ROAR (4) racing over this course and distance brings the best out in him.
