Albion Park Race 9 - Pryde's Easifeed Energy Pak Trotters Discretionary Hcp
PINNIE (5) left Victoria following a Melton win and made an immediate impact for new trainer Chantal Turpin when cruising home by nearly 33m to be unbeaten at this circuit and distance. Kept fresh since but has trialled. Can deliver again. GOLDEN SUNSET (6) is back from a spell of ten weeks having last raced in the Inter Dominion final and looks to be right up to the mark following a placing in a recent trial. Has only once missed a place in six fresh attempts, winning twice. She could threaten along with HIDE AND SEEK (7) who was also last seen in the Inter Dominion series and while he can be enigmatic he is a talent. DARCYS FIREBALL (2) steps up in grade but has put together a string of wins and placings and has the race fitness edge on some of these.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m second behind Majestic Lavros at this track over 1660m last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres second again at this track over 2138m in 4yo+ on September 11. Has the fitness edge on some of these so could be competitive again.
