Albion Park Race 1 - Ladbrokes Odds Surge Band 5 Pace
MASTER CHARLES (3) is racing well with a win and two placings from his last three starts at this circuit, all from the back row. A good draw should see him in the finish again. OUR VINCENT CAN GOGH (4) galloped away from the standing start in last week's Flashing Red so expect the mobile start to suit him better. Placed two back at Menangle and is suited back to a distance where he has recorded two wins and two placings from four attempts. His best form would see him very hard to stop. BACK TO BETOOTA (1) broke last start but his form earlier in the campaign was strong and he should get his chance from this draw. RISK TAKER (9) is suited back in trip having won over the distance here two back.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing third behind Sure Thing Captain at this track over 1660m in a B 5 No NR on June 7 at $23. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Still Rollin at this track over 2138m in a No NR on June 14 at $3.10. Rates highly. One of the primary contenders.

Returns from the paddock. Previously first up ran on strong from last on the turn and won by 2.25 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at Riverina Paceway (2:04.10) beating Rock The Nation in NR up to 60 on June 27 2023 at $3.60. Might need this.
