Albion Park Race 3 - Sunshine Stars Yearling Sale Sunday February 22 Pacers Band Handicap
ATTACHMENT (6) resumes from a spell of five months after showing some very good form last campaign, winning three of his last four starts at this venue including the G2 QBred Triad 4EG Final over this distance. Three from three when fresh so expect he'll be ready to fire first up again off a trial placing. GEM PUNTER PETE (2) did some work but stuck on okay for fourth at his most recent appearance. Led to win here prior and also scored the last time he attempted a standing start. DASHING (7) is a newcomer to the Shawn Grimsey yard from NSW where he was last seen in finishing second to a smart one at Wagga. Won his lone try at this distance and easily won his latest trial here so could measure up. AMAMI (5) came from this mark and boxed on after racing parked to finish runner-up at this circuit and distance last time out. Respect.

Finished up last campaign with a win at Redcliffe, and continued with decent results this campaign with a first-up effort 4th (Fr3) over 2138m at this track beaten 11 m by Commodore Jujon (2:35.60) in 3yo+ NR up to 75 on January 23 at $9.50. Then last time 3rd (FT Fr2) over 2138m at this track, beaten 10 m by Send It (2:39.60) in 4yo+ No NR on February 3 at $9.50. Not as keen on his chances in this line-up.

Two runs back won by 2.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr3) at this track (1:57.70) beating Studleigh Punter in NR up to 75 on January 31 at $3.60. Won the last time he attempted a standing start so has strong claims.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind So Sirius at this track over 1660m in a No NR MANUAL PACERS on January 31 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.75 m finishing second behind Send It at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ No NR on February 3 at $3.20. Working up to a win.

Returns from the paddock. Previously first up won by a nose as favourite when driven back in the field, when quickly away, (Fr5) held up early, at this track (1:58.00) beating Apollo Dreamz in No NR on May 17 at $3.20. Could maintain his perfect fresh record.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Catchafire at Leeton over 2582m in a NR up to 100 on January 1 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Nyack at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in a No NR on January 16 at $12. Easy trial winner here and could measure right up for the new yard.
