Emerald Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Mdn Special Weight
VINO VIKING (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. ILLUSION OF CHOICE (2) could only manage sixth on debut then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FAVORED SON (3) ran a better race last start at his second trip to the races, finishing third over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Coming along nicely and should be in the finish. ANNABELLE'S ASSET (7) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Finds a nice race and can atone.

Third race start. First start got back early 5th of 8 at this track on August 9 over 1006m, 8 len behind Coastal Journey carrying 54.5kg at $4.34. Went for a break before returning 8th of 12 at this track on July 26 over 1207m, 11 len behind Midnight Tiger carrying 55kg at $4.56. Needs to lift.

Having third race start. At long odds at debut, didn't finish the race at this track in the LR July 19 over 1609m. Second-up 6th of 12 at this track on July 26 over 1207m, 8 len behind Midnight Tiger carrying 55kg at $26.18. A top-three finish would surprise.
