Richmond Race 6

Ladbrokes Odds Surge 5Th Grade Ht 4 H

Prize Money: $2,335

MELANIA BANNER (6) boasts a strong record this course with three wins and three minors from seven tries. Placed last time (17.71) at Richmond Straight in a Grade 4, finishing second and beaten one length. Looks a key chance on best form. GRAND ARTIST (3) turned in a moderate run last time when fifth at Dubbo over 400m behind Queen Gout (23.63) in a Grade 4/5. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. YOU TWO (2) turned in a moderate performance last time when sixth at this track over 401m behind Our Inspiration (23.63) in a Grade 5. Likely to be about the mark. DANDY REDEEMER (4) has been a model of consistency and deserves plenty of thought.
