Albion Park Race 4 - Pink Ribbon Raceweek 2026 Open Pace
Superstar LEAP TO FAME (7) makes his first appearance since his luckless but brilliant second in July's Inter Dominion. He may be better known over further but has won 16 of 19 at this circuit and distance and seven of nine of his fresh attempts. He is a level above these. CAPTAIN SHUFFLES (5) hasn't raced since recording back-to-back wins at this circuit and distance last November but has been readied for the return with two trial wins. Draws well so he could make a race of it. MANILA PLAYBOY (3) made good progress when runner-up last week and owns a decent third-up record. DISTRICT ATTORNEY (1) gets the same draw he had when he showed some improvement for a 5m fourth last week.

First up. At the last run he won by 1.4 m (Sr2) at this track (1:55.50) beating Rocket City in on November 29 at $4.40 at the bell was 5th-10m 2WWC. Readied with two trial wins so look for a good return.

Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Fr5) over 2138m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 20 m by Fate Awaits (2:32.10) in 4yo+ on September 12 at $26. Not here.

Resumes. Finished off last preparation when beaten by 1.2 m in a brave and luckless second behind Captains Mistress in the Inter Dominion Final at this track over 2680m on July 18 at $2.40. Previous preparation first-up posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (2:31.40) beating Aroda in on October 4 at $1.04. Boasts seven wins and two minor placings from nine fresh runs and is a level above these.
