Richmond Race 3 - Flying Ricciardo At Stud
CRAFTY CHAP (7) was in winning form two back (30.44) at Wentworth Park but ran below best last time there, finishing 6th. Has a good record here at this journey. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Has winning claims on his best figures. SAY YOUR PRAYERS (8) drew the inside and won last time at this track and distance (23.03), scoring by one length. Expected to be in the finish. DRIFTIN' ETHICS (1) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten second (22.38) in a Grade 5 at Gosford last time out. Can feature with the right run. RUSTY CORTEZ (2) cannot be ruled out.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (22.38) at Gosford over 388m. Has claims if at his best.

Could only manage eighth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (23.28) over 401m at this track. Has a decent strike-rate off the draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 401m at this track. Prepared to overlook.

Backs up after finishing a well beaten last on August 2 over 520m at Wentworth Park in a Grade 5. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Missed the frame latest (30.46) when sixth over 520m at Wentworth Park in a Mix 2/3. Has performed well off the draw with a win and three places from seven starts. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Scored (23.03) last time out at this track in a Grade 5 and will break from box 8 for the first time. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
