Albion Park Race 5 - Garrards Horse & Hound Mares Open Pace
CHYNCHILLA (4) turned in a strong performance last time when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1660m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Won't find this any harder, and she can take this out. THESUNANDTHEMOON (3) is looking to improve on her last-start seventh behind Eye Keep Smiling at Group Three level over 1609m at Menangle five weeks ago. Can bounce back from an ideal draw. RYLEE RHAYNE BOW (8) will secure a cosy run early and is on the radar after her last-start fourth over 1660m at this track four weeks ago. THE VICAR OF DIBLEY (2) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 1660m at this track.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by 1.5 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at this track (1:56.40) beating Elegant Grooves in No NR M on May 24 at $1.45. Hard to leave out on current form. Should be there at the business end.
