Albion Park Race 5

Selective Motors Albion Band 5 Pace (B Div)

Prize Money: $11,500

MAJOR JELLIS NZ (1) has been on the money a lot of late and went close again last time over 2138m at this track, finishing third and only a head from the winner. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. BETTING ORIGIN (5) has had two runs this prep and is yet to finish in the top three. Added to the sequence last time over 1660m here, finishing 16 metres away from the winner in tenth. Steps up a level but he is good enough to take this out. STORYTELLER NZ (3) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 2040m at Redcliffe a week-and-a-half ago. WE ALWAYS HAVE FAITH NZ (8) disappointed last time but is a chance based on a good second over 2138m at this circuit two runs ago. Can bounce back.

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr6) over 2040m at Redcliffe, beaten 25 m by Marvellous Mac (2:28.20) in NR up to 75 on August 13 at $16. Before that, 4th (Sr2) over 1660m at this track, beaten 15 m by Our Goat (1:53.70) in No NR on August 2 at $41. Can do a lot better in this suitable contest.

At his previous start game effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr7) over 2138m at this track beaten 3.5 m by Blackjack Bart (2:34.10) in NR up to 70 on July 31 at $7. Sure to be in the mix.
