Albion Park Race 8 - Lunchbox Lodge Spelling Farm Mares Qualifying Pace
LUVARESCHS (2) made a decent start for the new stable here last week when she drew the outside barrier but chased well to get within 6m of the winner. Much better served by this draw and finds a winnable assignment. SWEET DIOR NZ (9) has come from this row in all three starts since a win at this venue and has produced some good efforts including a placing last time out. Owns a good record at this shorter distance. Go well. MIKI MOO (6) returns to the font row and has some consistent form behind her having only once missed the top-three in her last 10 starts, including three wins. HARPERVILLE (8) is worth thought having come from this barrier for a last-start win.

Finished sixth at her last two starts since resuming from a spell. Last outing was beaten 23 metres behind Scruffy at this track over 1660m 3yo+ on May 19. Fitter and draws well so watch for a spike in form.

Recent form below what she is capable of. Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr7) over 2138m at this track beaten 6 m by Justa Dragon (2:32.30) in 4yo+ on May 28 at $9.50. At the previous start 10th (Fr4) over 1609m at Menangle beaten 25 m by Namaka (1:50.90) in M on May 9 at $21. Solid from wider last start and is aided by this barrier.

Didn't do much last time out, 8th (Fr2) over 1660m at this track, beaten 50 m by Tilly Dunnage (1:54.50) in M on May 28 at $51. Before that was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr5) over 2138m at this track, beaten 25 m by Ruby Rules (2:32.10) in 4yo+ M on May 23 at $81. Others make more appeal.

Well-beaten 9 days ago at this track over 2138m, before that 9th (Fr6) over 1660m at this track beaten 23 m by Lochinvar Jewells (1:57.80) in 4yo+ M on May 16 at $34. This looks a far sterner task.

Last start 2nd (Sr1) over 1660m at this track beaten 24 m by Tilly Dunnage (1:54.50) in M on May 28 at $23. Two runs back 8th (Sr2) over 2138m at this track beaten 24 m by Ruby Rules (2:32.10) in 4yo+ M on May 23 at $23. Draws wide so might find this beyond her.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Oakley Shard at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ M on May 16 at $17. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Ruby Rules at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ M on May 23 at $19. With luck from the back row she can be prominent again.
