Alexandra Park Race 6

MAGNESS BENROW MBL PACE

Prize Money: -

ALLAMERICANPLAYER (7) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid second over 2700m at this track. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Sure to prove hard to beat on his return. WAR PARTY (5) had been racing in great heart then kept the ball rolling last start when he scored over 2200m at Cambridge Raceway, getting home by 2 metres. Tackles a similar assignment and he can salute once again. LULANA (4) last appeared when 12th over 2700m at this track four-and-a-half months ago. Expect a better effort to kick off this prep. FINAL CHANGE (8) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound second at Cambridge Raceway over 2200m.
