Richmond Straight Race 5 - The Lids Fly Hosted Pots
SPENCER BANNER (7) was in the placings last time but three back posted a solid 22.38 win over 400m at Maitland. Looks the one to beat on best figures. GOOD ODDS KEONA (1) is rarely out of the finish, recording 13 places from 23 starts. Has been in the money the last three starts, the latest when third (22.63) at Gosford. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Overdue and expected to feature again. CLOCK IT (6) comes off a (17.76) win last time, scoring by a nose in a Grade 5 over 324m at this track. Suited here and expected to run well. REDEMPTIONIST (2) hit the frame here last start and can sneak into the finish again.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (22.63) at Gosford over 388m. Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd on March 19 over 324m at this track behind Jungle Gym beaten 1.5 lengths (17.93) in a Grade 5. Yet to win but has been in the placings three times from this draw. Worth thought.

Last start finished fourth on March 23 over 400m at Maitland behind Despicable Pedro, beaten 7 lengths (22.95) in a Grade 5. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Eye-catching performance to score by 2.25 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a useful 17.64 over the 324m journey. In winning form and can measure up again.

Placed only run here over this trip. Latest effort finished 3rd over 450m at Maitland beaten 5 lengths (25.48) behind Cyclone Ethics in a Grade 5 on March 9. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.
