Maitland Race 3 - Husqvarna Max 150 Points
RED TAPE (4) spotted a start but wound up strongly to score by 6 lengths (22.76) at The Gardens in Grade 5. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Hard to go past. DESPICABLE RAMBO (1) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (17.44) at Richmond Straight. Has won two of four starts from this draw. Hard to beat again. DESPICABLE LEO (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing eighth (30.92) in a Grade 5 at Gosford. Can do much better this time. GOOD ODDS KEONA (5) will have admirers after surprising many with a placing last time out.
