Albion Park Race 10 - Burwood Stud 2Yo Trotters Handicap

ICONIC IMAGE (5) saluted two runs back then registered an effortless win last time out, scoring by 11 metres over 2138m at this track. Tackles a similar assignment and he can get the prize again. SMOKEY BEAR (2) is yet to win but has kicked off his career in promising fashion with seven placings from eight runs. Ran his typical honest race last time over 2138m at this track, finishing second and 11 metres from the winner. Meets a comparable field and he can grab that well-deserved win. DESIRING DIAMONDS (3) did a good job to finish second on debut two runs ago then broke in the run and finished a distant fourth at the latest appearance over 2138m at this track. Live chance in a similar assignment. BLACK VIPER (4) galloped last start and finished a distant fifth when resuming in a 2138m event at this track two weeks ago. Live chance in a similar assignment.

Two-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 2138m. Last start posted a big 11 m win (10m Fr1) at this track (2:50.60) beating Smokey Bear in 2yo No NR on July 31 at $3.90. Has to overcome a 20m handicap but looks hard to beat again.
