Richmond Race 2

Ladbrokes Blackbook Maiden Final F

Prize Money: $2,310

BEFORE THE DAWN (4) was quickly into stride on debut to score by 2.5 lengths (18.36) at this track over 320m. Can make it back to back wins. Can continue winning ways. ELSA ABOVE (5) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at this track, scoring by one length (18.28). Looks a primary danger. DANCE THE NIGHT (1) was sent out big odds last time but scored an upset win in a Maiden at this track (18.64). Solid formlines coming through her last run. One of main contenders. MORNING DAYLIGHT (3) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish in impressive time.

Solid performance after racing just off the speed to win by one length at this track over 320m (18.64) beating Back Tomorrow in Maiden on July 23. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Good performance to win by one length at this track over 320m (18.55) beating My Roadster Boy in Maiden on July 27. Has hit winning form and is worth thought again.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won by 2.5 lengths at this track (18.36) beating Fantastic Wilma in a Maiden on July 23. Will find this much tougher but she's got good box manners and speed. Returned in great order and can make it back to back wins.

Produced a good effort on debut to finish third on July 23 over 320m at this track behind Elsa Above, beaten 1.75 lengths (18.40) in a Maiden. Not among the main chances this time.
