Albion Park Race 5 - Burwood Stud 2yo Pace
LA SAUVAGE (7) was struggling to make his mark before the latest appearance when he scored by 30 metres over 1780m at Redcliffe. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can make it two on the trot. GO MINNIE (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 7 metres from the winner in fourth over 1780m at Redcliffe. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and she can grab that well-deserved win. CAPTAINS RUN (3) finished 3 metres back in fourth over 1660m at this track recently at his first race start. Strips fitter and can improve. OH ITS ON (4) last appeared when fourth over 1720m at Young four months ago. Must be respected.

Last start 4th (Fr3) over 1780m at Redcliffe, beaten 7 m by Long Awaited (2:10.90) on July 24 at $3. Before that, a good run when 3rd (Sr2) over 1780m after racing wide at Redcliffe, beaten 13 m by Orion Art (2:13.80) on July 17 at $1.75. Will be right in the thick of things.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 1660m after being wide early at this track beaten 8 m by Lucy Rhayne Bow (2:00.60) in 2yo on July 23 at $31.
