Richmond Race 9 - Ladbrokes Blackbook

FEDERAL BLUE BOY (1) boasts a strong record this journey with seven wins and eight minors from 20 tries. Was out of placings last time (23.11) at this track in a NG, finishing fourth and beaten 3 lengths. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. BY THE BOOK (2) used the inside draw to advantage last time and hit the ground running with a fast early split, paving the way for a 4 length win at this track over 401m in 22.89. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Should be in this for a long way. ZIPPING ALI (4) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Missed the frame last start when a 3 length fourth (23.11) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 5.5 lengths in 22.73, beating Kiwi Kawa. Last start finished last on July 25 over 520m at this track behind Unleash Jodi beaten 14 lengths (30.92) in a Grade 5. Has ability and looks a winning hope.

Good effort to win last start by one length over 401m at this track in a handy (22.86), beating Emgrand Drive. Should be around the mark.
