Prize Money: $2,655

FEDERAL PLAYER (1) comes here after rocketing around this track over 400m in 22.02, claiming a NG by 1.5 lengths. Has the ability and expected to go close again. REIKO BATTY (2) has a strong record this trip with seven wins and four placings from 16 starts. Below best last time at Richmond Straight (17.98) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 6 length sixth. Can hit the frame with the right run. MATT JET POWER (4) turned in a modest effort most recently when seventh at The Gardens over 400m behind You Never Lose (23.79) in a Grade 4/5. Was a winner the start prior. Has ability and can atone. LOOK FOR LIONEL (7) is new to this course but should be in the mix.

Comments

Has been in tremendous form, putting four wins back-to-back. Had plenty of support last start when he won by 1.5 lengths at this track (22.02) beating Shorty Boy in a NG on March 30. Boasts a course and distance PB in a lightning 22.02. Top chance.
