Albion Park Race 6 - Catch The Fire At Somerset Farms 1 Win Pace
CANADIAN LASS (7) ran fifth last start at Alexandra Park over 2200m, beaten 10 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Finds a suitable assignment and will be a major force. PATS BOYS (3) broke in the run and finished a long last when resuming last start over 1660m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. This doesn't look as hard, so he can bounce back. PEPPA (2) disappointed last time with a modest effort over 1660m at this track. Can make amends. MY ULTIMATE FELIX (4) broke in the run and finished tailed off when resuming last start over 947m at Redcliffe. Meets a similar lineup, so if he behaves, a big run is likely.
