Richmond Race 9

Gapnsw.com.au Masters

Prize Money: $2,310

HE'S GRAND (6) last start finished 4th over 324m at Richmond Straight beaten 6 lengths (18.21) behind Venus Banner in a Mix 1/2/3 on January 16. With a clean break looks hard to beat. SPRINGVIEW HAWK (2) has been in super consistent form, finishing in the minors at his last four runs. Last time finished 3rd on January 10 over 350m at Goulburn behind Peter's Power beaten 3 lengths (20.36) in a Grade 5. Overdue and expected to feature again. MRS. CHOP (1) turned in a plain run last time when fifth at Gosford over 388m behind Wild Sylvia (22.71) in a Grade 5. Placed at her previous run. The form out of last race has been strong. One of the main contenders. PUMPKIN EATER (3) is a last-start placegetter at this track and distance - solid claims again.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (22.67) over 388m at Gosford. Has a fair record off the rails draw and capable of a better result.

In the money last time at Goulburn (20.36) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3 length third. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from 10 starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Good effort to win last start by 5 lengths over 320m at this track in a handy (18.37), beating Fabio Blue. Will find this a bit tougher, will not find this easy. Not keen.

Missed the frame latest (18.21) when fourth over 324m at Richmond Straight in a Mix 1/2/3. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and four places from 12 starts. Looks suited and should go close.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (19.12) in a Mix 1/2/3, finishing a 11 length sixth. Has three wins and four placings from 10 starts from the draw. Tough field and looking to others this time.
