Richmond Race 9

Ladbrokes 5Th Grade Heat 3 H

Stake: $2,495

DRINK VODKAS (8) was well back early but attacked the line strongly to score by a nose (18.55) at Potts Park in NG. Missed the placings only try here. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Expected to be right there at the finish again. BETTY EMGRAND (7) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing eighth (31.42) in a Grade 5 at this track. Form here sound including four wins. The form out of last race has been strong. One of the main contenders. LITTLE TIME (4) is a solid beginner and with a good start can clear the draw. Latest effort finished 4th over 320m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (18.74) behind Tasman Hope in a Grade 5 on May 30. Can feature in the finish. MONTANA BANNER (6) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to turn the form around.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (19.68) at Bulli over 340m. Safe beginner who is expected to take running down despite the draw.
