Albion Park Race 9

Racing & Sports.com Pacers Band Handicap

Prize Money: $9,120

FRANKIE FEROCIOUS (7) has been tackling strong opposition of late and did manage back-to-back placings last month. The last time he attempted a standing start race he came from this mark to score at this circuit and distance. Could do it again. REGAZZO DI TILLY (6) returns from a NSW stint where he produced some decent efforts, often without a lot of luck. Placed the last three times he attempted standing start races here. Can measure right up to these with his A-game. QUADDIE VC NZ (4) did a good job to come from this mark for third last start. Generally runs very well at this circuit and distance so can play a leading role. SEND IT (5) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth. Include in combinations.

Last start 5th (FT Fr2) over 2647m at this track, beaten 8 m by Tyson (3:15.60) in 4yo+ No NR on April 21 at $7.50. At his previous start good run when 2nd (FT Fr1) over 2280m at Redcliffe, beaten 7 m by Cool And Classy (2:45.30) in 4yo+ No NR on April 14 at $5.50. Look for improvement on last start. Can play a big role.

Comes here second-up after a week. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (10m Fr1) over 2647m at this track, beaten 45 m by Tyson (3:15.60) in 4yo+ No NR on April 21 at $41. Hard to make a case in this field.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr10) over 2300m at Menangle was 7th-12.85 at the bell, beaten 9 m by South Seas Rock (2:44.70) in NR up to 95 on March 27 at $13. The start before 10th (Fr3) over 2525m after racing wide at Penrith, beaten 25 m by Ubetcha Tigerpie (3:02.50) in G3 No NR on March 20 at $34. Finds the right race this time.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr5) over 2138m at this track beaten 9 m by Tims A Trooper (2:29.80) in 4yo+ No NR on April 11 at $7.50. The run before was well back in the run when 8th (Fr7) over 2138m after racing wide at this track, beaten 24 m by Leap To Fame (2:29.60) in 4yo+ No NR on March 28 at $41. Looks well placed.
