Albion Park Race 1 - Burwood Stud 2yo Mdn Pace
MATT DAN (1) is at the track for the first time. By Poster Boy and hails from the powerhouse Victorian stable of Emma Stewart stable. Solid at the trials and is well served by the ace draw. Sure to be well educated so can kick off with a win. FIT AND READY (2) was a well-beaten second on debut then produced a very good effort last week at this circuit and distance, finishing third and less than 2 metres from the winner. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run and a win looks imminent. HARRY THE HAT (4) must be considered after he improved at start number two and finished runner-up here last week. Poster Boy filly WALK WITH ELEGANCE (5) has been trialling well and should be kept safe on debut.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Havtimemajor at this track over 1660m in a 2yo on June 23 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing third behind Hes A Dancer at this track over 1660m in a 2yo on June 30 at $19. Rates highly. Close to a win and should run well again off the low draw.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind Awholelottahappy at Redcliffe over 1780m on June 17 at $11. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second behind Hes A Dancer at this track over 1660m in a 2yo on June 30 at $26. Could take another step forward.
