Albany Race 4 - W&R Residential Sales (Bm70+)
PLATINUM SHOT (6) was too good in a CL5 at Narrogin last start, sitting close to the speed and putting her rivals to the sword by 2.6L. Faithfull remains in the saddle and this shapes as a similar race. Maps for a lovely run and can bring up back-to-back wins. PIN DEEP (1) will find this easier than recent efforts when beaten 3.7L in Saturday last start. He's back to country level now and steps up in trip. ZJP's claim comes in handy and any sting out of the ground should suit. STORM COMMANDER (2) was 2.2L off the winner last start in a similar event and may appreciate the rise in trip. He was only 0.4L away over a similar distance two back. Nicely placed and won't be far away. GIFT OF THE HEART (5) was too good last start when leading throughout and has to be included. MAHALEO (3) hasn't raced for a long time but was good in a recent trial and he's a fresh winner in the past.

Going well. At the latest run came from midfield and won by 2.5 len at Narrogin Cl5 March 30 over 1190m in soft going defeating Like No Other with 59.5kg at $5. The start before that 3rd of 10 at Ascot Cl3 on March 12 over 1200m, neck behind So Nataya carrying 56kg at $21. Looks hard to beat again despite tackling a better field this time.
