Menangle Race 8 - Hrnsw Four And Five Year Old Trot Nsw Final
LONDON TO A BRICK (4) rates as an absolute standout in this. He is a highly accomplished trotter who has won up to Group 1 level and is racing in good form with top-three finishes at his last seven starts here, winning three of them. Beaten favourite last week but was brave after working. He should prove a class above these. MALIBUU (2) was midfield from a standing start last time and may enjoy getting back behind a mobile having won from a wider draw than this here two back. ALPHA STRIDE (6) has trialled since bombing the start last time and did manage a win from a wide barrier here two back. LAST CLANSMAN (3) is next in line.

Comes here second-up after a week-and-a-half. Lacklustre first-up performance when was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr5) over 2300m at this track, beaten 55 m by Valley Star (2:53.40) in NR up to 54 on June 10 at $41. Hard to have.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (FT Fr5) over 2300m at this track beaten 8 m by Leaf Stride (2:52.60) in No NR on June 7 at $7. Showed ability the run before when she won by 1.75 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr7) at this track (1:58.40) beating Gunner in NR up to 62 on May 27 at $2.40 at the bell was leading 3.53. Drawn well and rates as the main danger.

Didn't do much last start, was well back in the run when 10th (Fr8) over 2300m at this track well beaten by Oh Nova Love (2:51.60) in NR up to 66 on June 10 at $31. Before that 9th (20m Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 25 m by Oh Nova Love (1:58.90) in No NR on June 3 at $16. Unlikely to threaten.
