Albion Park Race 8

Pryde's Easifeed Stamina Trotters Mobile

Prize Money: $14,980

GET USED TO IT (3) is looking for further success after taking out a feature at his latest appearance over 2138m at this track, scoring by 9 metres. The one to beat from an ideal draw. LOVE GUN (5) produced a better effort last time out when runner-up over 2138m at this track, beaten a head. Meets a comparable field so he is capable of taking this out. TAYLAD TO USE NZ (4) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 2647m at this track three weeks ago. MASTERLY NZ (2) will be rock-hard fit after four runs back from a spell, the latest effort a fifth at this track a week ago.

Didn't do much last start, 6th (FT Fr1) over 2138m at this track beaten 16 m by Van Sank (2:40.00) in No NR on December 27 at $7. Before that 5th (10m Fr1) over 2138m at this track, at the bell was 6th-23.2m 2WNC beaten 18 m by Darcys Fireball (2:39.80) in 3yo+ NR up to 75 on December 16 at $7.50. Hard to have on those efforts.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Get Used To It at this track over 2138m in a G3 No NR on December 6 at $12. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Van Sank at this track over 2138m in a No NR on December 27 at $5.50. Bold showing expected again.
