Form Analysis: Albion Park Jun 06

RACE TWO

ALWAYS IN COMMAND (2) may have some poor numbers next to his name, yet the conditions of this race look much more suitable than recent assignments. Having to work over the 2138m last start didn’t suit and the start prior from the 2^nd line was against the tempo. Back to the mile, he can be much sharper.
 
MAYWYNS BEST (3) was a winner her on Tuesday when easing to find position from gate 7 he was able to finish over the top in claiming a narrow victory. Luckless here 3 starts back when probing for gaps that didn’t arrive, finding early position will be key to his chances to make a challenge.
 
BODHI TREE (10) can be forgiven for his last outing with his run here 2 starts back when only 7m in arrears, the type of run that can see him in the mix against this field. Closing strongly for 2^nd in a similar race here 3 starts back, look for him swooping.

HUGHIE GREEN (1) will find these conditions favourable after his 2 runs back from a spell have been in the FFA ranks. Fading after setting the tempo in the Flashing Red, look for a sharper effort here.

SELECTIONS: ALWAYS IN COMMAND (2), MAYWYNS BEST (3), BODHI TREE (10), HUGHIE GREEN (1)
SUGGESTED BET: ALWAYS IN COMMAND (2) to win

RACE THREE

COREY WILLIAM (2) is in great form and finds the rate gate to look to add another victory to his tally. Settling in the 1x1 trail over the mile 2 starts back, he finished over the top of a strong tempo to cruise by for a smart win. Fighting hard from the breeze last start, he can look to take control and fight them off.

JOHNNY WHITE (1) will take good benefit from his last start victory after a 5-week gap between runs. Settling in the 1x1 trail, he finished over the top to claim a qualifying victory over the 2138m trip. Fading the start prior after a tough run, his run 3 starts back when 3m from SAM IS PERFECTION was a tidy effort and he can throw down a big challenge with the options from this gate.

BRIDGET BLUE CHIP (4) claimed a mares event here 2 starts back when swooping hard to arrive for a 2m victory. Hitting the line in great order to grab 2nd last start, she can finish hard in the stretch.

SHERIFF JUJON (8) will get an economical trip here and be probing for the gaps in the stretch. Beaten by gate 7 last start when forced to retreat, he can finish hard off the easy trip.

SELECTIONS: COREY WILLIAM (2), JOHNNY WHITE (1), BRIDGET BLUE CHIP (4), SHERIFF JUJON (8)
SUGGESTED BET: SHERIFF JUJON (8) to place

RACE FOUR

ULTIMATE AD (1) has been in super touch since joining the Ryan Veivers barn, recording 3 wins and finishing runner-up 2 others in his past 5 starts. Rolling forward to do it the tough way last start over the mile, he was I for the fight when 2m from the winner JOHNNY WHITE. Too strong in front the start prior, he can look to fight them off.

OYSTER STRIDE (8) settled back in the pack from gate 10 here 3 starts back and when asked for the effort was able to attack the line strongly to score. He found the line in good order last start behind SPEECH IS SILVER and if safely away at release, will be coiled and ready to strike in the stretch.

LETTERKENNY BOY (9) lines up for a hat-trick of victories after successive Redcliffe wins at the 2040m. Powering home to score from the 2^nd line last start, with the right trail he can finish hard.

LITTLE BOLT (2) secured the perfect run in transit last start in the 4YO Triad Final, making the closing shot a winning one. Not suited in the breeze the start prior, he can feature with the right trip.

SELECTIONS: ULTIMATE AD (1), OYSTER STRIDE (8), LETTERKENNY BOY (9), LITTLE BOLT (2)
SUGGESTED BET: Exotics 1-2-8-9

RACE FIVE

SPRING CAMPAIGN (2) has been a work in progress and capitalised with a breakthrough victory at Redcliffe 3 starts back. Sent forward from gate 5, he took control and was able to fight them off in scoring a big 12m win. Runner-up at his next outing, he was back to winning form last start in a new career PB. From the gate he gets his chance.

PACIFIC DRUMS (6) found the right conditions over the Redcliffe sprint trip 2 starts back and from the 2nd line had too much in reserve in cruising home to a smart win. Chasing from the back last start, he has been stung by the wide gate, but with even luck in transit can look to challenge.

KILLARA KAOS (9) made the most of a good gate last start to pounce on the pegs from gate 2 and once in control was able to fight them off. With the right trail, he can be chiming in here.

CAMROLLER (1) looks set to secure a cosy run here and will be ready to take his shot when the gaps open. Finding the line nicely last start, he can be looking to the lane for a closing shot.

SELECTIONS: SPRING CAMPAIGN (2), PACIFIC DRUMS (6), KILLARA KAOS (9), CAMROLLER (1)
SUGGESTED BET: SPRING CAMPAIGN (2) to win

RACE SIX

TACT BESS (10) was an eye-catcher last start when easing back from gate 7 to look for some luck and the short-cuts. Locked away a long way back in the pack, she was able to weave a passage and was only 4m from KILLARA KAOS. Closing nicely for the silver to STREET APPEAL 3 back, she just needs even luck in transit to arrive.

BLUE MOON RISING (4) found the right conditions at Redcliffe 2 starts back, securing the cosy trip from gate 1 and then finishing over the top to claim the prize. Using the passing lane to grab the bronze last start behind JOHNNY WHITE, if he can find position cheaply, he can look to challenge.

SHAZAM SHANNON (2) started from the 2^nd line last start and couldn’t go with them when the power went on when down the line behind JOHNNY WHITE. Settling handy, he is a podium chance.

TOO GOOD FOR YOU (9) rolled forward from the 2^nd line to do it the tough wat I the breeze last start and was fighting hard when mid-field at Redcliffe. With the right trip he can chime in here.

SELECTIONS: TACT BESS (10), BLUE MOON RISING (4), SHAZAM SHANNON (2), TOO GOOD FOR YOU (9)
SUGGESTED BET: TACT BESS (10) to win

RACE SEVEN

A tough mares race to pull apart here where the early tempo over the middle distance could prove the key to the chances of a few of these. Leaning to HARPAGUS (9) who has placed in 3 of her 4 outings since arriving in Qld. Closing out nicely last start to be 1.5m from the in-form DEMETER, she can get the right trip to arrive.

GODDESS JUJON (5) is on a streak, having been in the money at her past 8 in succession. From gate 10 last start she found the running line and was closing out nicely when 1m from DEMETER. Hitting the line with power the start prior from a long way back to grab silver in the 4YO mares Triad Final, she can lay it own here.

KOTIRO (4) made the most of a cheap ride last start, taking the closing shot up the passing lane to claim a mares qualifier. A smart run the start prior behind THE CRUISE MISSILE, she will be right in the fight here.

ALE ALE KAI (8) will need a slice of luck to go her way from this gate, yet if the gaps arrive, she can be ready to sprint. Strong to the line last start over this trip, she will be probing for the openings.

SELECTIONS: HARPAGUS (9), GODDESS JUJON (5), KOTIRO (4), ALE ALE KAI (8)
SUGGESTED BET: HARPAGUS (9) to win

RACE EIGHT

The buzz horse in Qld is back at the races and HECTORJAYJAY (7) will need to display his trademark finishing burst to again arrive. Hitting the line strongly at his return after almost 2 years off the scene when 1.5m in arrears, he scorched up the stretch last start in a mid-week FFA to arrive for a comfortable 10m victory. The gate stings, but look for him charging home once again.

GLENFERRIE HOOD (5) set the tempo here last week from gate 4 over the sprint trip and lead for every step bar the most important, nosed out right on the wire by COLT THIRTY ONE. His run from the tapes in the Flashing Red the start prior was huge and lighting the lamps, will have the target they need to gun down.

MAJOR CAM (6) eased from gate 5 last week and was facing a huge task to eat into the deficit as the closing panel in front was laid out in 27 flat. Hitting the line with gusto to be 3m in arrears, he will need to repeat the effort.

CLINTAL DO (1) was buried 3 back on the pegs last start when trying to chase home late, only 4m in arrears of the winner. Settling 1 position closer here, with the cosy trip he will be ready to take his shot.

SELECTIONS: HECTORJAYJAY (7), GLENFERRIE HOOD (5), MAJOR CAM (6), CLINTAL DO (1)
SUGGESTED BET: HECTORJAYJAY (7) to win

RACE NINE

MAJESTIC SIMON (3) rolled forward to the breeze here 2 starts back over this trip and when asked for the effort, had too many bullets to fire in claiming a 5m victory. Fading last start over the 2138m, he has since been back to the trials where he was a real eye-catcher over the mobile mile, with his time bettering the current track record. From the front tape, he looks tough to stop.

GARLAND GREENE (8) is the in-form trotter in the state, completing a hat-trick of victories last start when pouncing on the pegs from gate 2 from the mobile and keeping them chasing all the way to claim a smart victory. His record is not as strong over the long trip, but he is white-hot at present.
NORTHERN MUSCLE (9) put a run of outs behind him last start when dropping back to mid-week company. Settling back in the pack from a 30m tape, he savaged the line over this trip and with added fitness following a freshen, is right in the fight here.

OUR OVERANOVA (10) took on the mobile 2138m last start when sent around the field to find the breeze, but couldn’t reel in GARLAND GREENE. Claiming a strong win over this trip 2 starts back, he is never far from the action.

SELECTIONS: MAJESTIC SIMON (3), GARLAND GREENE (8), NORTHERN MUSCLE (9), OUR OVERANOVA (10)
SUGGESTED BET: MAJESTIC SIMON (3) to win

RACE TEN

We have to wait until the penultimate to see the excitement machine that is SPEECH IS SILVER (10), however this progressive 5YO is worth waiting for. Brilliant again last start when demolishing his rivals after scraping the outside running rail on the turn, sit back and watch for the scorch marks.

DEMETER (1) is in great form since arriving in Qld and will look for a hat-trick of victories after a stylish win last start. A winner in 4 of her 8 outings here at this track, she defeated the mares her past 2. This is a step up, but she is in great touch and with the benefit of the gate can claim silver.

SAM IS PERFECTION (8) did it the tough way last start when setting up outside LETTUCEFIRESTAR and was game to the line when 6m in arrears. A big winner the start prior, he will be searching for the gaps.

MARK OF INTEGRITY (4) found the right conditions last start when tackling a 2^nd division Band 5 event and once in control was able to take them all the way. This will be a step up, but he will be thereabouts.

SELECTIONS: SPEECH IS SILVER (10), DEMETER (1), SAM IS PERFECTION (8), MARK OF INTEGRITY (4)
SUGGESTED BET: 10 / 1-4-8

RACE ELEVEN

WITH THE BAND (9) heads back to The Creek after her past 3 have been at Redcliffe. Sent forward from gate 6 last start over the 1780m, she was forced to race tough in the breeze and couldn’t fight off the challenge of the in-form GLENEAGLE WARRIOR. An easy winner in front the start prior, back to mares company looks a big plus.

KOTARE ELITE (1) is getting closer to a qualifying win after placing in her past 4 in succession under similar conditions. Grabbed up the passing lane last start to go under by a neck, the start prior she was 6m in arrears, holding 3^rd with both 1^st and 2^nd having subsequently won. She will be in the fight.

SPORTS STORY (8) was 1^st up in 9 months last week when easing from gate 5 to find position. Attacking the line strongly to grab the bronze, it was a smart return and with the easy trip can make a closing play here.

RUNFORTHEROSES (3) went down by a half-neck here 5 starts back when TIMELESS APPEAL edged her out. Given a freshen, she has been better at each outing since, the latest a tidy effort and she can feature.
