Albion Park Race 2 - Garrards Horse & Hound Pace
TUAPEKA LOU (9) brings good form from NSW, missing narrowly two back at Menangle before scoring a 5.6m win at Penrith last week. Draws on the back row but has the ability to overcome that. MIKIS JOE (6) made a successful first visit to this circuit when he got home by a nose over 2138m. Draws wider but is expected to measure up again. DARIN (2) has had eight weeks off since a close second at this venue but has been kept up to the mark with a trial and draws well. COUNTY COURT JUDGE (3) is another drawn to advantage and has yet to miss the top three at this venue and distance. Something for the Multiples: TUAPEKA LOU NZ (9) DARIN NZ (2)

Last start was well back in the run when 9th (Fr5) over 2138m after racing wide at this track, beaten 13 m by Mikis Joe (2:35.10) in NR 50 to 56 on July 4 at $51. At the run before 6th (Sr1) over 2040m at Redcliffe, beaten 2.75 m by B Mac C (2:30.70) in NR 51 to 55 on June 26 at $7.50. Can do a lot better from this draw.

Two back was well beaten into tenth after showing early speed, behind Go The Red at this track over 2138m in a NR 50 to 56 on May 9 at $1.80. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Thetorque Majority at this track over 2138m in a NR 52 to 57 on May 16 at $3.50. Working up to a win.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Betting Jewel at this track over 2138m in a NR 47 to 51 on June 13 at $2.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.3 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Shards Matrix at this track over 1660m in a NR 47 to 51 on June 27 at $15. Should be in the mix again.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (Sr3) over 2138m at this track beaten 12 m by Coastal Babe (2:32.90) in No NR on July 4 at $101. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.3 m (Sr3) at this track (1:56.90) beating County Court Judge in NR 47 to 51 on June 27 at $4.60. Solid showing expected.
