Richmond Race 6

Ladbrokes Same Race Multi 5Th Grade Heat 2 H

Stake: $2,518

MY FRIEND BEC (6) looks close to another win after finishing third last time (23.19) at this track. Has a strong winning record at this journey. Top prospect. TASTY SNACK (1) turned in a plain run last time when seventh at this track over 320m behind Swan Attitude (18.99) in a Grade 4/5. Has performed well from this box with a win and five minor placings to her name from nine starts. One of the better hopes. WALTZIN' ETHICS (3) last start finished 3rd on August 5 over 340m at Bulli behind Fancy Lena beaten 3.5 lengths (19.43) in a Grade 5. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts MISS TESS (5) can play a role in the finish without surprising.
