Maryborough Race 2 - Redpath Tyre And Battery Service Trot

ALFIE ALWAYS (5) is back from a break of three months and looks to be right up to the mark following a placing in a recent trial. Sure to be right there at the finish. VAN DOREN (4) has been racing well of late. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 2190m at Shepparton, beaten 7 metres. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. POPPY POPSTAR (6) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at Charlton two weeks ago. AT THE DISTANCE (2) could only finish sixth over 2150m at Bendigo most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
