Albion Park Race 3 - Catch The Fire At Somerset Farms Band 4 / Band 2 Pace
FRANKIE FEROCIOUS (7) returns off a terrific last-start effort in the Miracle Mile in Sydney where he drew widest and finished fourth against the big guns. Had won his other three starts of the campaign including the G1 Chariots of Fire two back and a G2 when he resumed at Melton. He is three from four when fresh and will be primed off three trial wins. JIMARTEE (1) is going great guns having won his last two at this circuit. Led in both of those so has the speed to take advantage of the ace draw. Must rate highly. DON HUGO (2) is building in fitness and will enjoy dropping to a distance where he won his only attempt. Can progress further with the aid of a low draw. FIRE FOX (8) draws for a trail and is capable of more than he has shown in Sydney so far this campaign. DEUS EX (4) has been taking on strong opposition of late. Can be competitive in this line-up. Something for the Multiples: BETTERTHANAROCKET NZ (5)

Seven-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track. Last start won by 4 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (2:29.30) beating Big Shadow in B 4 on June 15 at $1.60. Recent form hard to fault and is again a strong contender.

Chariots Of Fire winner. Resuming after four months off the scene. Finished off last preparation when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth after being restrained, behind Leap To Fame at Menangle over 1609m in a No NR on March 9 at $9.50. Previous preparation first-up ran on from midfield and won by a head as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:58.50) beating Rocky Leigh in NR 44 to 48 on July 6 at $1.20. Classy pacer readied with three trial wins. Chief contender.
