Albion Park Race 5 - Nrl Grand Final @ The Creek Pace
KINGSBURY (9) led and fought on well for a close second last start at Marburg, beaten a head, after scoring at the previous appearance at this circuit and distance. If things go his way he he has the ability to test this field. PLANET DOWNS (2) worked from a tough barrier last start so prepared to forgive that result. Recorded four straight placings prior, two of them here. Well drawn so is deserving of another chance as is DOUGS TRIBE (4) who broke and finished a distant seventh last start but had recorded a series of top-four results prior. MIGHTY IDEAL (10) has claims off a win from this barrier here two back.

Gave plenty of ground last start when well beaten into seventh behind Ubetonred at this track over 1660m in a 3yo+ on September 15 at $3. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Sr1) over 1660m at this track, beaten 6 m by Stay Dreamy (2:) in 3yo+ on September 11 at $2.90. Major player on best form.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Moonshine Milly at Redcliffe over 2040m in a 3yo+ on September 8 at $8.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Ubetonred at this track over 1660m in a 3yo+ on September 15 at $10. Can play a role in the finish again.

Backs up 4 days after failing to impress last start; 8th (Sr1) over 1660m at this track beaten 10 m by Victree Charlie (2:00.40) in 3yo+ on September 18 at $19. Showed ability the run before when he won by 2.5 m (Sr3) at this track (1:58.60) beating Rosie Pollen in 3yo+ on September 11 at $4.60. Can be there at the business end.
