Richmond Race 2 - Ladbrokes Popular Srm Maiden
TAP OUT STELLA (6) turned in a plain effort last time when fifth at this track over 320m behind Mister Anatoly (19.18) in a Maiden. Worth another chance. TEDDY DEVIL (3) was in trouble and failed to finish at Bendigo last time after running seventh in a Maiden two back. Can measure up this time. KILCOY PEARL (1) is overdue for a maiden success having placed at three of nine starts and finishing in the money again at Gosford. Leading player again. BLUE RUDD (8) is a Joy Morton-trained newcomer by Shima Shine out of Monkey Tail. Start all important and will need some luck getting across from the wide draw. Respect any moves in the market.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 388m at Gosford clocking 22.79. Boxed on well to finish runner-up at the latest run. Leading player.

Moderately away on debut last start and was never in contention when seventh at this track over 320m in 19.47. Happy to risk in this.

Was seventh in a Maiden two back then given a 11 months break after failing to finish last time at Bendigo. Looks the one to beat on best.

Last start finished fifth on February 11 over 320m at this track behind Domineering, beaten 11 lengths (18.90) in a Maiden. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in her races, The latest effort was a 10 length sixth over 401m at this track. Others have better credentials.

First starter by Shima Shine from Monkey Tail. From the Joy Morton kennel. The market will give the best guide to his chances.
