Redcliffe Race 2 - Driver Of The Night - Brendan Barnes Pace

BLACKJACK CRIPPA (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in second over 1660m at Albion Park. Has the ability to take this out. ROCK NIEN (8) finished fourth last start over 2040m at this track six days ago. Well-placed here and he appeals as a solid chance. WINDY HILL WALLY (7) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 2040m at this circuit. can be in the money again. BLACKJACK BART (6) must be respected off a win from the back row here last time.

Finished sixth at his last two starts since resuming from a spell. Last outing was beaten 5 metres behind Denver Colorado at this track over 2040m 3yo+ NR 54 to 62 on January 1. Should be at peak fitness now and can do better from a nice draw.

Good performance when beaten by 4.5 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind Cheerstolou at Albion Park over 1660m in a No NR on December 20 at $19. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Lanai at Albion Park over 1660m in a NR 54 to 60 on December 30 at $3.80. Continues to race well and has winning claims.
