Albion Park Race 7

Stu Valentine For Bloodstock Insurance Band 4 Pace

Prize Money: $14,500

MOSSDALE TERRY NZ (1) hasn't won for a while but has been quite consistent of late, coming from the back row for top-four finishes in his last two outings. Should get every chance from the ace draw. DARIN NZ (6) might find this easier than last week's attempt and while drawn wide he had put a series of wins and placings together prior. CHECKNOUTTHETALENT (5) came from the second row for a win at this circuit four back and has been solid since. Kept fresh since but this looks winnable. ELLIS STREET (3) draws better than he did last week and led for a win at this circuit and distance prior so can bounce back to form.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 2680m at this track beaten 20 m by Captain Hammerhead (3:12.10) in No NR on December 6 at $23. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 2 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr1) at this track (1:57.30) beating Withdistinction in B 5 No NR on November 29 at $1.85. Contender from a good draw.

Solid last start 5th (Fr2) over 2680m after showing early speed at this track, beaten 19 m by Captain Hammerhead (3:12.10) in No NR on December 6 at $5.50. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:55.20) beating Bigger The Bettor in B 5 No NR on November 1 at $1.20. Strong claims with even luck.
