Albion Park Race 9

Garrards Horse & Hound Mares Open Pace

Prize Money: $16,000

SALLY BIGTIME (4) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 3.5 metres from the winner in third over 2138m at this track. Good enough to take out a race like this. GOLDEN FIRE NZ (6) is in a purple patch of form with wins at her last three starts, most recently when she was too good over this track and distance three weeks ago. Finds a suitable assignment and will prove very tough to beat once more. TREMENDOUS SENSATION NZ (5) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 2138m. Genuine threat. LUVARESCHS (2) is a chance after finishing in the money for the second time in a row last start, beaten 3.5 metres into third at this track.

Didn't do much at the last run, was well back in the run when 10th (Fr4) over 1660m after racing wide at this track, beaten 11 m by Smarter Than You (1:58.40) in 4yo+ on August 20 at $71. Before that 6th (Fr5) over 1660m at this track, beaten 8 m by Golden Fire (1:55.60) in 4yo+ on August 8 at $81. Facing a tough assignment this time around.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3.5 m third behind Golden Fire at this track over 1660m 4yo+ last start. Before that was beaten a nose second again at this track same class on August 1. Nicely drawn and expected to measure up again.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (Sr2) over 1660m at this track beaten 9 m by Golden Fire (1:55.60) in 4yo+ on August 8 at $51. Before that was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr6) over 1660m at this track, beaten 10 m by Golden Fire (1:55.60) in 4yo+ on August 1 at $61. Hard to have on those efforts.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Eye Keep Smiling at this track over 1660m in a G1 M on July 18 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third behind Fernco Nel at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ on August 20 at $2.70. Sure to be there at the business end.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing fifth behind Golden Fire at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ on August 8 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.3 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Fernco Nel at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ on August 20 at $19. Among the better chances.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 1.2 m after showing early speed, (Fr7) at this track (1:55.60) beating Bella Danza in 4yo+ on August 8 at $5.50. Two runs back won by a nose as favourite (Fr7) at this track (1:55.60) beating Luvareschs in 4yo+ on August 1 at $1.95. Can maintain the solid form.
