Richmond Race 4

Prize Money: $2,655

SUMMER DREAM (8) placed last time (20.04) at Goulburn in a NG, finishing third and beaten 5.5 lengths. Expected to be in the finish. MAYBE NEXT WEEK (7) finished third (20.17) two back at Goulburn but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Form here at the trip sound including 13 wins. Comes through a solid form race last start. Worth another chance. QUEEN ERA (1) boasts a strong record this journey with 21 wins and 11 minors from 46 tries. Below best last time at Goulburn (19.97) in a NG, finishing a 6 length sixth. Looks a key chance on best figures. MAXIMUS MERIDIUS (6) must be included in main hopes on latest effort.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (19.68) over 350m at Goulburn. Has the inside draw but prefer each-way.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 401m at this track in a handy (22.83), beating Boston Strong. Will find this a bit tougher, this looks too tough.

Missed the frame last start when sixth and beaten 6 lengths at Goulburn. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Best figures puts him right in this and well worth another chance.
