Albion Park Race 2 - Racing & Sports.com Open Pace
Expect the mighty LEAP TO FAME (7) to continue in his winning way having dominated in his three starts here off a spell, cruising home by 26m last week. Back in trip but has won 17 of his 20 tries at the distance. Draws wider than last week but scored from this barrier prior so that shouldn't stop him. DASHING (10) scored here fresh then finished just over 3m from LEAP TO FAME when runner-up last start. Draws on the back row and has had three weeks off but was kept ticking over with a trial win. FOR REAL LIFE (1) resumes following a spell of eight months but generally comes to hand very quickly with four wins and two placings from eight fresh appearances. Readied with two trials and gets the ace draw so is a trifecta hope along with TIMS A TROOPER (3) who draws lower than in his two most recent appearances.
