Albion Park Race 2 - Racing & Sports.com Band 4 Pace
SWEET ON LEXY (5) made an impressive switch to Queensland when he drew on the back row but worked his way to the front before cruising home by 17m. Drops to a distance where he has won three of five attempts and a front row draw should see him hard to stop. PATH TO GREATNESS (7) resumes from a spell of nine weeks after closing off last campaign with three straight wins at this venue. Has to contend with a very wide draw but he is talented and races well when fresh so expect a bright start to the campaign. MEGS BOY NZ (10) tackles a couple of handy rivals tonight and the draw looks tricky but he is very hard to knock after putting five wins together, two of them from this row. The inside draw could see last-start placegetter CHARGE AHEAD (1) in the finish again.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Tinder Surprise at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ on May 16 at $10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Always Be Chaps at this track over 2138m on May 28 at $12. Can be competitive from the ace draw.

Hard to fault of late. Last start posted a big 17 m win as favourite (Sr2) at this track (2:28.60) beating Braventreacherous in 4yo+ on May 23 at $1.28. Very impressive last start and return to the front row so can deliver again.

First up. At the last run he won by 2.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:30.60) beating Buddy Perfect in 4yo+ on April 4 at $1.15. Draws wide but he is a talent and owns a strong record at this circuit and distance.

Has been mixing his form of late, most recently was well back in the run when 4th (Fr4) over 1660m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track, beaten 7 m by Fernco Nel (1:55.30) in 4yo+ on May 23 at $18. Before that 10th (Sr4) over 2138m at this track, beaten 12 m by Tinder Surprise (2:32.00) in 4yo+ on May 16 at $34. Not keen on his chances in this field.

Comes here in the right form. Won by a nose as favourite (Sr1) at this track (1:55.70) beating My Ultimate Flynn in 4yo+ on May 16 at $1.90. Two runs back won by 2.25 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:30.30) beating Strikem in 4yo+ on May 2 at $1.55. Tackles some smart ones and may need some luck from this draw but winning form is hard to knock.
