Alexandra Park Race 6 - FROCKS AT THE TROTS - ALEX PARK FEB 27TH HANDICAP TROT
EMILY BAY (7) finished an unlucky fourth last start over 2200m at this track after a good win at Cambridge Raceway the run prior. Forgive that last effort. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. CONRAD H (6) scored last start by 2.75 metres in a far better performance at Taupo over 1800m. This looks like a sterner test than last time, but with a safe beginning, he is capable of making it two on end. BRIENNE (1) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 2700m at Cambridge Raceway a month ago. Each way value from the perfect inside draw. JOE KENNEDY (5) could only finish sixth after breaking up late over 2000m at Hawera most recently. Open to improvement, and he is worth the risk again.
