Albion Park Race 5

Sky Racing

Stake: $3,080

ANGEL HARKS (4) struggled to get involved last start at Rockhampton, but prior to that won by 0.8 lengths at Rockhampton (23.94) beating Bahama Blue in a Grade 4 on December 11. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Has ability and looks hard to stop. COMICAL CYNDIE (1) comes off an average performance last start when seventh at this track over 520m behind Lederhosen Boy (31.73) in a Mix 5. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Key player if finds best. STAR ASSASSIN (8) was strongly fancied last time but ran below expectations when fifth (19.72), beaten 7 lengths. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Expected to feature in the finish. ASTON PISTON (2) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 0.8 lengths second over 288m Ipswich in 17.09. Has claims if at her best.

Comments

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (19.72) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 7 length fifth. Has three successes and three minors from eight starts from box 8. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
