Form Analysis: Albion Park October 26

RACE ONE

With the chance to hold running line position and be close to the action, THE RAINBOW BEACH (2) might just end up in the perfect position to take his claim. His run was better than the 11^th recorded two starts back and then his Redcliffe win last start was sharp.

TEDDY TURPIN (2) rolled forward to sit parked from gate 7 against his own age last start when midfield. A winner at three on the bounce prior to that including the heat of this Final, the early burn will be the biggest consideration in his challenging chances.

AMAMI (6) is afforded no favours from the wide gate but has been hitting good areas in recent attempts, the latest when beaten a lip in a blanket finish.

MYNAMESEVAN (1) has the gate benefit and has good early moves out of the machine. Taking them all the way last start, he was runner-up in his heat. He will be punching.

SELECTIONS: THE RAINBOW BEACH (2), TEDDY TURPIN (2), AMAMI (6), MYNAMESEVAN (1)
SUGGESTED BET: THE RAINBOW BEACH (2) win/place

RACE TWO

Placed at his past four starts at the mid-week meetings, THROWYAARMSAROUNDME (3) will look to convert his consistency in Saturday night company. A strong 2^nd behind MR MCLAREN last time out, he was only 2m from GLOVER the start prior. This looks within reach.

GLOVER (6) stepped cleanly to lead throughout from the tapes three runs back, beating home two subsequent winners. Luckless at his next run when buried behind ROYAL SPEECH, he was gripping on from the front when 3m from ARODA last start. He can issue a challenge again.

DON ARTHUR (11) has been a model of consistency since joining the Butler stable and last grabbed the silver along the passing lane. Just a neck away the start prior, he has claims.

MACH ASSASSIN (10) secured the 1x1 cover last start when just behind the placings. Darting through on the passing lane the start prior, he can be chiming in.

SELECTIONS: THROWYAARMSAROUNDME (3), GLOVER (6), DON ARTHUR (11), MACH ASSASSIN (10)
SUGGESTED BET: THROWYAARMSAROUNDME (3) to win

RACE THREE

Working to the front last start in a qualifier over the 2138, PROMISING (10) was able to dictate and fend off the challengers to claim a 2m margin. Strong to the line from a wide gate the start prior, this 70Consolation looks wide open and he can be looking to capitalise.

LUVBITE (6) rolled forward to sit parked last time at Redcliffe after facing a checkered passage to get there. Game in defeat the start prior when parked and working hard in the run and finishing just behind the money. Despite the gate, he can throw it own here.

BARRETT (1) has mixed his form somewhat but secures the options from the gate to look to turn it around. A gritty Redcliffe winner four runs back, he must be considered.

OBI ONE (3) grabbed the bronze behind THE RAINBOW BEACH at Redcliffe two starts back and then was not suited at Marburg on Tues. A return to the front line is a huge plus.

SELECTIONS: PROMISING (10), LUVBITE (6), BARRETT (1), OBI ONE (3)
SUGGESTED BET: PROMISING (10) to win

RACE FOUR

HIRANYA (1) has been to the staring line twice since arriving in Qld, the latest when making good metres over the closing stages after being faced with the outside second line gate. Grabbing bronze behind MR MCLAREN at his first start, he is a big barrier winner for this.

ALTA SENSATION (2) held on for the silver behind GLVOER at the midweeks three starts back and converted that form to a Redcliffe win at his next start. 5m away last start, he can settle handy enough to throw down the challenge in this assignment.

ROCKNPENNY (8) has the ace last week and from the pocket trail used the passing lane when runner-up to PROMISING. He will be stalking the gaps again here.

ROCK HAMMER (4) was not suited by the second line last start ad then pushed wider in the latter stages. A gritty winner the start prior, getting closer will aid his chances.

SELECTIONS: HIRANYA (1), ALTA SENSATION (2), ROCKNPENNY (8), ROCK HAMMER (4)
SUGGESTED BET:

RACE FIVE

The middle trip is a consideration for the mare’s here with a number of runners not producing their best figures over the 2138. JESEEKA (4) was a tough winner two starts back when parked and the last time was best of the chasers behind the jet, CHYNCHILLA. She gets her chance.

MIGHT AS WELL (11) will take benefit from her return here last week when first up from a freshen. Buried away from inside the second line, she closed it out in good style behind ZENXENA. Saved for a closing shot, she can issue a challenge.

ZENXENA (8) took control of proceedings here last week and from the front was never in danger, seeing them off with a slippery 54.7 closing half. She will be probing for open space.

SERGIOS ROCKET (5) was a winner here three starts back when overcoming gate 7 and launching in the closing stages to score. Luckless last start, she is right in the fight.

SELECTIONS: JESEEKA (4), MIGHT AS WELL (11), ZENXENA (8), SERGIOS ROCKET (5)
SUGGESTED BET: JESEEKA (4) to win

RACE SIX

In an even open class contest, the consistent BRAEDOS LAD (6) will need to be at his best to defy the gate. Overcoming gate 7 here two starts back when sent forward to forge his way to the front, he was nailed in the last strides last time. He will be looking to fend them off again here.

NORTHVIEW HUSTLER (7) keeps on keeping on and last start took his shot up the passing lane to grab victory at the 2138. Best of the chasing pack behind LEP TO FAME the start prior, he is given no favours from the wide gate, but a solid temp will see him charging late.

O B LEGAL (3) can fire off the arm and that will assist his chances by firing out early for position. 7m from NORTHVIEW HUSTLER last start, he is a podium player with his tag and release tactics.

WATERMELON SUGAR (2) should be able to settle handy to the action from this gate after some tough marbles at his past two. He steps up in grade, but the gate aids his hopes.

SELECTIONS: BRAEDOS LAD (6), NORTHVIEW HUSTLER (7), O B LEGAL (3), WATERMELON SUGAR (2)
SUGGESTED BET: BRAEDOS LAD (6) to win

RACE SEVEN

A strong of wide gates have made it a tough month for ROYAL SPEECH (1) who has still managed to finish as the runner-up twice and score a win from gate 11 in his past four outings. Fighting hard last start to score, he can make full use of the improved gate to capitalise.

ARODA (4) was charging hard down the outside here two starts back when runner-up to ROYAL SPEECH, producing some electrifying closing splits in defeat. Cashing in for his first win of this campaign here last week with a starchy effort, he will be throwing it down once again.

DANGERZONE (6) is given no favours from the wide gate with his recent efforts strong without garnering a return. Midfield behind a scorching ALWAYS SMOKIN last start, he can chime in.

LAST TIME JOE (8) was ready to strike when the leader ran a 57.1 middle half at Marburg on Tuesday and descended on them to score. If leaders back in transit, he can fire some bullets.

SELECTIONS: ROYAL SPEECH (1), ARODA (4), DANGERZONE (6), LAST TIME JOE (8)
SUGGESTED BET: Exotics 1-4-6-8

RACE EIGHT

A winner via the passing lane here six starts back, BETTING STAR (2) has been in the money in all five runs since. Using the passing lane here two starts back when just a head from the winner, she was the best of the chasing pack behind ELEGANT GROOVES last start.

YUKON BE SERIOUS (3) was out of the pack and chasing here last week when it was all over, grabbing the bronze behind the scorching ELEGANT GROOVES. Runner-up to DELILAH ROSE the start prior, she can issue another challenge here.

A PERFECT DANCE (5) was building towards something after a pair of placings and last start was able to capitalise at Redcliffe when rattling late to arrive. She is a podium player again here.

ROBYN X (6) was sent out as fav last start from gate 1 but released following a 27.3 opener and chased on for a midfield finish. The wider gate makes this a tougher ask.

SELECTIONS: BETTING STAR (2), YUKON BE SERIOUS (3), A PERFECT DANCE (5), ROBYN X (6)
SUGGESTED BET: BETTING STAR (2) to win

RACE NINE

Striking trouble here last week ZEALOUS SPUR (9) had his night end but fought on gamely despite the scrimmage. Huge in defeat the start prior when runner-up to VICTREE HILL, his conversion rate at the mobile is a concern, but he can defy that here to cash in.

VICTREE HILL (6) did not have the smoothest passage from this same gate last start when out of the money behind HAMMER SON. Overcoming the 20m to score here two starts back which had followed successive placings, positioning cheaply can see him throw down a challenge.

TOP OF THE MOMENT (5) exploded off the speed here last week to arrive for a smart win in some electric closing panels. Scoring from the mobile three starts back, he is right in the mix.

ADELLE (7) was asked to sit parked last start after being sent forward from the 20m tape. Game in defeat when just missing the money, a return to mobile conditions can see her feature.

SELECTIONS: ZEALOUS SPUR (9), VICTREE HILL (6), TOP OF THE MOMENT (5), ADELLE (7)
SUGGESTED BET: ZEALOUS SPUR (9) to win

RACE TEN

Stripping fitter following his first up 2^nd here last week, OUR SWEET DELIGHT (6) can look to maintain his inside advantage over the main threat. Game in defeat in the Triad Final before being sent for a break, he was hitting the line strongly when resuming.

COOL AND CLASSY (7) is first up since her fillies Triad victory where she as able to take them all the way, highlighted by a sub 27 close out to claim G1 glory. With no public trial in readiness for the return, the fitness looks the only chink at this point, if there even is one.
 
SEASIDE GLORY (4) will take benefit from her run here last week when stepping out for the first time in 44 days. Holding on for the bronze behind RUBY RULES, she can feature again here.

UDDERLY SWEET (5) was first up from a spell last start when tackling the older horses and never able to warm up from the second line. Back to his own age from this gate is a huge plus.

SELECTIONS: OUR SWEET DELIGHT (6), COOL AND CLASSY (7), SEASIDE GLORY (4), UDDERLY SWEET (5)
SUGGESTED BET: OUR SWEET DELIGHT (6) to win
