Redcliffe Race 6

Vale Chris Garrard Open Pace

Stake: $15,660

DOUGS PLATTER (4) has had two runs this prep without filling a placing. Was again unable to find the frame last start when he finished seventh over 2680m at Albion Park, beaten 16 metres. Has the talent to take care of this field. CHEVRON ART (7) was out of the money two runs back at this track then displayed pleasing improvement last start to score by 5 metres over 1660m at Albion Park. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. Must raise the bar but another win is not out of the question. WHEREYABINBOPPIN (6) disappointed last time when ninth over 2680m at Albion Park. Can make amends. STORYTELLER (3) finished seventh first-up last time out when he broke in a 2138m event at Albion Park five weeks ago. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Live chance in a similar assignment.

Finding it hard to put a couple of good runs together. Last start was 2nd (Sr3) over 1660m at Albion Park, beaten 4.5 m by Sweet Mia (1:56.70) in NR up to 75 on July 15 at $16. Before that beaten 10 metres, fifth at Albion Park over 2138m NR up to 75 on July 8. Will find this tough.

The run previous 11th (Fr3) over 2138m at Albion Park beaten 55 m by Don Hugo (2:29.30) in No NR on July 5 at $71. Can do a lot better in this suitable contest.

Last start was well back in the run when 9th (Fr6) over 2680m at Albion Park beaten 30 m by Leap To Fame (3:09.40) in No NR on July 12 at $151. At his previous start 10th (Fr4) over 2138m at Albion Park beaten 24 m by Leap To Fame (2:28.90) in No NR on July 5 at $151. Certainly worth another chance.
