Albion Park Race 8 - Garrards Horse & Hound Pace
PRINCESS ARNA (8) kicked off her first Queensland campaign with three successive wins and she could be ready to find that form again after a fourth as favourite at Redcliffe last time. She is two from two at this circuit and distance and there is no harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. ONE CHAIN ROAD (1) has been a model of consistency of late. Recorded back-to-back placings here before a well-deserved victory last time out, scoring by 3.5 metres over 947m at Redcliffe. Should enjoy an economical run from the ace draw. Primary contender. SAN SABA (4) continues to race well and is a chance to break through after placing in her last four outings. LITTLE SURFER GIRL (6) could be close to a win after two successive placings at this venue, the latest a second over further.

Racing in great heart. Last start won by 3.5 m (Fr4) at Redcliffe (1:06.40) beating Mysticalfantasy in 3yo+ NR 41 to 46 MANUAL PACERS on April 22 at $6.50. Draws to advantage and expected to go well again.

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run was well back in the run when 8th (Fr7) over 1660m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track, beaten 35 m by Birkirkara (1:58.70) on May 7 2024 at $61. Has only trialled once and may need more time.

Two back was well beaten into third behind One Last Roll at Marburg over 2200m in a 3yo+ NR 43 to 48 on April 19 at $6.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Shereacts at Marburg over 1850m in a 3yo+ NR 45 to 49 on April 26 at $1.55. Exotic hope.
