Albion Park Race 5 - Wolf Signs Junior Ffa
HEZA PUNK ROCKER NZ (1) has joined the powerhouse Jason Grimson stable since a last-start second in Adelaide and he was a Group 1 winner earlier in his career so he is capable. The ace draw gives him every chance to kick off for the new yard with a win. HES NO ROMEO NZ (8) backs up after a big effort to come from wider on this row to score by 13 metres on Tuesday. That was his second win in a row when attempting this distance here. Can settle just behind them and wait on the sprint lane. Could strike again. CATSEYE BEACH (7) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this venue. Go well. Last-start winner FREE THINKER (9) is also in contention although the draw makes his job a bit tougher.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing sixth behind Tough Aint Enough at Mildura over 1790m on June 12 at $2.30. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second after showing early speed, behind Last Tango In Heaven at Globe Derby Park over 2230m on June 27 at $1.25. Newcomer to the Jason Grimson yard and should get every chance from the ace draw.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Fr6) over 2138m at this track beaten 7 m by Luvareschs (2:30.70) on July 2 at $31. Before that was well back in the run when 10th (Fr7) over 1660m after being wide early at this track beaten 25 m by Hesitate (1:56.30) in 4yo+ on June 27 at $81. Needs to do more. Has the job ahead.

Fair performance when beaten by 5.5 m finishing fifth after being driven well back, behind Shez Sweet Louise at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ on June 27 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Luvareschs at this track over 2138m on July 2 at $3.80. Include in exotics.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr4) over 1660m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 11 m by Double Lou (1:54.40) in 4yo+ on June 27 at $23.
