Richmond Race 9 - Ladbrokes Richmond Derby Heat 3 H

GOOD ODDS COBBER (8) is a promising dog in the frame at 12 of 56 starts including 33 wins and was a last start winner (25.98) over 472m at Bulli. Form here sound including two wins. Drawn wide but with a clean break will be tough to beat again. CHIEF LIGHTNING (1) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (26.08) at Bulli. Has never been out of the money in four starts this course and distance. Has never missed the frame from eight starts from this draw, including three wins. Bold showing expected. POCO RICO (4) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money twice in a row including last time in a NG at Wentworth Park over 520m. Well placed here and can atone this time. BROOKLYN BRUTE (2) has strong credentials from this draw.
