Richmond Race 6

STAR HOTEL / R & J BATTERIES MOBILE PACE

Prize Money: -

PRINCESS RENEE (1) comes here just a couple of days after finishing second beaten 7 metres over 2400m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. That latest effort is good enough to put her right in the finish. RAKERO JOHN (7) had to dig deep to salute last start over 2400m at this track, getting home by just 1.4 metres. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Leading hope in a similar race. BEAUDIENE ALWAYS B (5) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 2400m at this track last time out. ALWAYS BEE GEE (2) must be respected after scoring last start by 3 metres at Reefton over 2450m.

Distance: 1609m
Class: 3YO+ R38 to
