Albion Park Race 8 - Happy 50Th Birthday Brian Mccall Pace
OUR ULTIMATE STORMY (10) made mistakes at the start in her first outing for Grant Dixon but had sound NSW form prior including a Newcastle win three back. Has a decent record and is a winning hope with manners. GOOD WORD THAT (7) has been racing at Redcliffe and producing some good efforts including back-to-back wins earlier in the month. Could measure up. HEAVENLY WISDOM (2) should enjoy this favourable draw having come from the back row to win two back. LA SABINA (9) draws on the second line but there was merit in the latest performance for a 2.5m second.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr6) over 1780m after being wide early at Redcliffe beaten 1.2 m by The Harris Hawk (2:10.80) in NR 41 to 46 on May 22 at $15. Has the inside and is a hope.

Failed to impress last start; 8th (Sr1) over 2040m at Redcliffe beaten 22 m by Tiger Tommy (2:30.90) in NR 41 to 46 on May 8 at $9. Showed ability the run before when she won by 1.75 m as favourite (Sr2) at Redcliffe (2:30.20) beating Llanfair Llewellan in NR up to 40 on April 24 at $2.90 at the bell was 7th-13.9m 2WWC.

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run 6th (Fr3) over 1780m after showing early pace at Redcliffe, beaten 15 m by Cote Dazur (2:09.00) in NR 44 to 48 on August 14 at $61. Might need this run and others rate better.

Finished up last campaign with a win at Marburg, but hasn't been as effective this campaign with a first-up effort 9th (Sr2) over 1660m at this track, beaten 18 m by Hatties Jewel (1:58.60) in NR 44 to 49 on May 20 at $19. Then last start was well back in the run when 10th (Fr6) over 1660m at this track, beaten 30 m by French Fries (1:59.50) in 3yo No NR CG on May 23 at $61. Others make more appeal.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Sr4) over 2040m at Redcliffe, beaten 20 m by Arkuna (2:31.30) in NR 44 to 48 on May 21 at $21. The start before was well beaten after breaking at Redcliffe on May 15. Worth another chance. Finds the right race this time.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Miss Crunchy at this track over 2138m in a NR 41 to 46 on May 16 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second behind Teachers Pet at Marburg over 2200m in a NR 43 to 47 on May 25 at $5.50. Leading contender.

Recent form below what she is capable of. Last start broke in score up and was out of position at the start was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr6) over 1660m at this track beaten 25 m by Megs Boy (2:) in Up to 4 LTW on May 16 at $51. The run previous 8th (Fr5) over 1730m after showing early speed at Bathurst, beaten 35 m by Gunna Reload (2:01.90) in 3yo No NR F on March 24 at $5. One of the leading players on her best form.
