Albion Park Race 4 - Racing & Sports.com 1 Win Pathway Pace
AARDIE'S A STAR (3) produced a better effort last time out when he scored by 2.5 metres over 1660m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role again. SURREAL MORAN NZ (6) has had two runs this campaign and is yet to finish in the top three. Was again unable to find the frame last start when he finished sixth over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 8 metres. This is a nice drop in grade so he is in the right race to find the winners' list. BENNYDASOOK (9) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1660m at this track. Should run a big race. STUNNING STRANGER NZ (8) was out of the money two runs ago then overcame a break to get the prize by 2.5 metres over 1660m at this track a week ago. Can travel in a nice spot from this draw and wait on the sprint lane if necessary. Only needs to get things right to be in the money again.

Was well back in the run when 4th (Fr4) over 1780m at Redcliffe beaten 4 m by Moonshine Milly (2:12.40) in 3yo+ on June 5 at $13. Before that 7th (Fr2) over 2138m at this track, beaten 10 m by Bettor Be Bodhi (2:37.00) on May 28 at $9. This looks a far sterner test.

Failed to impress last start; was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr6) over 1660m after being wide early at this track beaten 11 m by Roman Charlie (1:58.30) on June 4 at $8. Showed ability the run before when he won by a head as favourite when quickly away, (Fr5) at Redcliffe (2:11.70) beating Social Outing in on May 27 at $1.35. Worth another chance.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Fire And Passion at this track over 1660m in a 3yo G3 CG on May 30 at $81. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Roman Charlie at this track over 1660m on June 4 at $2.15. Looks very hard to beat.
