Albion Park Race 7 - I H Capital Band 5 Pace
BETTERTHANFEDERER (8) is hard to knock after winning three of his four starts at this venue since joining the Callaghan yard for this campaign. Draws on the back row but two of those victories have come from there and he should enjoy a nice trail. With even luck he could deliver again. WILLIAMS (6) worked from a back row draw last time so prepared to forgive that result. Had only once missed the top-three in his previous eight starts so deserves another chance. SWEET DIOR NZ (1) has led to win two of her last three starts, the latest here on Tuesday. She has the speed to take advantage of inside draw. TARGARYEN NZ (5) could be close to a win after placing in three of his last four outings here.

Good performance when beaten by 4.5 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Isla Rochelle at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ on September 5 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.4 m finishing second behind Fire Raiser at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ on September 19 at $5.50. Could be close to a win.

Recent efforts have been impressive. Last start won by 1.3 m as favourite when driven back in the field, after showing early speed, (Fr3) held up early, at this track (2:32.50) beating Spunkys Gotsecrets in 4yo+ on September 19 at $2.15 at the bell was leading 3.22. Draws for a trail so could measure up again.
