Emerald Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
ISLAND PARADISE (5) was always well back over this course and distance last time and never threatened in the straight, beaten 18 lengths into fifth. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. ANOTHER LIFER (1) was on speed for much of the way over this course and distance last time but weakened late to finish fourth, beaten 15 lengths. Blake Nunnally has registered two minor placings when on board. Well placed and should be in the finish. SUBTLE PRINCE (2) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 21 lengths when seventh in a 1207m contest at this track three weeks ago. Has the talent to produce a better result. BETTERLETITRIDE (4) finished third last time out over this course and distance, travelling towards the tail before winding up strongly in the dying stages. Will be doing his best work late.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 4th in a small field at this track on August 15 over 1609m, 15 len behind One Phil carrying 55kg at $8.89. The race before that 2nd in a small field at this track on July 31 over 1609m, 1.0 len behind Flight Ryder carrying 55kg at $16.25. Capable of a better run.

At the latest run 2nd in a small field at this track on August 15 over 1609m, 12 len behind One Phil with 55kg at $23.40. Before that 3rd in a small field at this track on July 31 over 1609m, 6 len behind Flight Ryder carrying 55kg at $21.63. Recent form suggests this might be a bit too tough.
