Albion Park Race 8

Prize Money: $9,000

APOLLO DREAMZ (5) was successful last time out, leading from a similar draw and scoring by 3.5 metres in a nice return to form at this circuit and distance. Big chance to make it two on the bounce. LIFE OF ART (10) worked when tackling a stronger line-up last time but was good when winning here two back. Draws out a little on the second line and may need luck at some point but has the talent to take care of this field. MY ULTIMATE BUDDHA (4) is a likely improver after finishing third when resuming here last week. LULU MAE (9) draws on the second line this time but is tough to leave out on the back of four successive wins at this circuit.

Returned to racing last start with a solid effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr5) over 1660m at this track, at the bell was 5th-15.4m on the pegs beaten 10 m by Waikaka Magic (1:56.30) in NR 56 to 64 on April 8 at $23. Fitter and sits high among the chances.

Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.3 m (Sr2) at Bathurst (2:01.50) beating Works For Me in NR up to 75 on March 26 at $7 at the bell was 3rd-7m 2WWC. Among the chances on best form.

Didn't do much last start, was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr7) over 2138m at this track, at the bell was 9th-15.7m 3WNC beaten 15 m by Our Benson (2:34.00) in NR up to 75 on April 1 at $2.90. Before that 4th (Fr2) over 1660m at this track, at the bell was 5th-8m 2WWC beaten 6 m by Life Of Art (1:55.50) in 7yo+ NR 70 to 99 on March 18 at $51. Prefer others on this occasion.

Scored at her last four starts. Last start posted a big 5.5 m win as favourite when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (2:32.30) beating Delilah Rose in B 5 No NR M on April 5 at $1.28. Hard to leave out on current form. Must respect winning form.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Gave plenty of ground last start when well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Jamaican Rock at this track over 1660m in a NR up to 75 on March 29 at $4. Raced better the start before that where he won by 1.5 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at this track (1:55.50) beating Alta Equus in 7yo+ NR 70 to 99 on March 18 at $1.40 at the bell was leading 3.8m on the pegs. Nicely placed and is likely to measure right up this time.
