Richmond Race 7 - Streetsmart Pavement Repairs
GUS AND GLORY (1) is generally an honest type in the frame at six of 26 starts but missed the placings last time when fourth (19.32) over 340m at Bulli. Unbeaten in three starts jumping from this box. Drawn the fence and expected to go close. BUSY MAN (7) is an accomplished sprinter with a great record at the short dashes. Kept coming to fill the minor placings over 320m at this track (18.13) in a NG. Strike rate this course and distance strong having won 14 of 26 tries. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Deserves a win and gets his chance. DIRE (2) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished third (18.52) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Solid record at the distance winning four races. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and four minor placings to his credit. Expected to be in this for a long way. INFAMOUS STATHAM (6) is always a threat when he races at this track and distance.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 320m at this track in a handy (18.76), beating Bobby Junior. Will find this a bit tougher, hard to entertain this time.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by 2.25 lengths at this track (18.16) beating Electric Blue in a Grade 3/4 on April 19. Capable of taking this out.
