Albion Park Race 2 - Catch The Fire At Somerset Farms Band 5 Pace
OUR INDIFFERENCE (4) ran sixth last start at this track over 1660m, beaten 35 metres. Has the talent to take care of this field. SO SIRIUS (2) produced a better effort last start when he scored by 2.75 metres over 2138m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Stepping up a level this time but he is capable of making it two on end. COSMIC FLYER (1) found a couple better two runs back then things went sour last time when he broke and finished 22 metres back in eighth over 2138m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Live chance in a similar assignment. CHECKNOUTTHETALENT (9) comes here following a sixth behind Attachment at Group Two level two weeks ago over 2138m at this track. Top-shelf performer who is well-placed to atone.

Last start was well beaten into eighth behind Frankie Ferocious at this track over 2138m in a No NR on August 23 at $61. Performed better the start before with a solid effort when 3rd (Fr1) over 2138m at this track, beaten 7 m by Attachment (2:34.00) in 4yo G2 No NR GH on August 16 at $41. Rates highly and can atone.

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Won by 2.25 m (Sr4) at this track (2:35.00) beating Captain Nemo in NR 52 to 57 on August 21 at $9. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into ninth behind Hold Onto Ya Bling at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ NR Up to 65 on August 16 at $5.50. Prepared to risk.
