Albion Park Race 2 - Pryde's Easifeed Easiperformance Trotters Discretionary Handicap
NELLIE JOY (1) was successful at her most recent outing by 1.8 metres in a strong performance at Redcliffe, her fourth success from her last five outings. Switches to standing start but won her last attempt under these conditions. Take beating from the front mark. IVANKA NZ (2) turned in a good effort at her latest run to get home by a narrow margin at this circuit and distance. Led there so can be prominent again from the front mark. DARCYS FIREBALL (6) is close to a win after placing in four of his last five outings, the latest a second to NELLIE JOY at Redcliffe. VALLEY STAR NZ (7) was forced to work when racing up to four wide last start. Had consistent form in Sydney prior so worth another chance.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.75 m second behind Nellie Joy at Redcliffe over 2280m 3yo+ NR up to 75 last start. Before that was beaten 2.75 metres third at this track over 1660m same class on March 31. Looks close to a win.
