Richmond Race 3 - Ferness @ Sires On Ice
ANJO RUBY (5) in the money last time at this track (18.33) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 2.5 lengths third. Looks a key chance on best form. JAMES ALARM (2) is a sprinter who excels over the short dashes. Was a strong winner last time (18.16) over 320m at this track in a Grade 5. Form at the trip excellent including three wins. Must be included in calculations. ACE IS FIRE (1) is first up since finishing fourth (22.67) in a Grade 5 at Ballarat over 390m seven months ago. Meets a moderate line up and should run well. NEAR IMPOSSIBLE (8) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Returns from a seven months spell after being tipped out on the back of a fourth (22.67) over 390m at Ballarat. Well placed here and expected to be tough to beat.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (23.16) over 400m at The Gardens. Has a low draw but will need to find best.
