Richmond Race 4

Wick Coffee Masters

Prize Money: $2,335

BOTH BOWERS ACE (5) has hit the frame at 73 of 140 starts and has won two of last three, the latest scoring (29.77) over 520m at Wentworth Park. Form here sound including 13 wins. Well placed here and can go close with a clear run. MIDNIGHT STAR (1) was below best last time when fourth but prior to that was a Mix 3/4 winner in quick time at Bulli. Safe beginner and drawn well on the inside. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. CRAFTY CHAP (2) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (23.43) in a Mix 1/2/3 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. With a good start should be able to take advantage of the low draw. Well placed here and should do much better. NINJA MAC (8) has claims fresh from a recent placing.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by a neck at Wentworth Park over 520m (29.77) beating Magic Bandit in Free For All on May 14. Solid beginner who should take some running down.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (18.83) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length eighth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from eight starts. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
