Albion Park Race 2 - Ladbrokes Ultimate Driver Heat 2
OUR ULTIMATE STORMY NZ (1) has been beaten as a hot favourite in her two starts in NSW this time in but has still performed well to place each time and should be close to her peak now. Hails from a good yard and is well served by the inside draw. CALL TO ORDER (11) overcame a wide barrier when he scored by 6.6 metres at this circuit last start. Draws on the second line but is going well enough to win again from there if things go his way. LENNY LINCOLN NZ (9) has trialled well since a midfield finish as favourite last time and had been racing well with a string of wins and placings prior. TEST OF FIRE (6) was off his game last time but has trialled since and the prior form was good so is worth another chance. Something for the Multiples: KATACHA MAN (10) BLACKJACK CRIPPA (3)

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by a head as favourite (Fr6) at Redcliffe (2:10.60) beating Bling The Luck in NR 44 to 48 on January 15 at $3.30 at the bell was 2nd-1.4m 2WNC. Going well so consider for exotics.

Last start won a big 6 m win when driven back in the field, (Fr7) held up early, at this track (2:33.40) beating Luka Doncic in NR 50 to 56 on February 14 at $4.60. Looks very hard to beat.
