Richmond Straight Race 8 - Gapnsw.com.au Masters
ELITE CHEVY (6) goes very well here starting 21 times for 10 wins and five minors. Missed the frame latest (17.99) when sixth over 324m at this track in a NG. Looks the one to beat with even luck. SAINT RICO (2) has missed the frame at his last couple but did finish in the minors in quick time three back (24.49) at Goulburn in a NG. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. EXPRESS ETHICS (8) finished eighth last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 324m at this track, taking a Mix 1/2/3 in a sharp 17.62. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. SILVER SESSION (1) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Missed the frame latest (18.09) when sixth over 324m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minors. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
