Albion Park Race 9 - Burwood Stud 2yo Mdn Pace
WANNABE ME (2) is in good form at present. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1660m at this track, beaten 5.5 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Good enough to put herself in the winners' stall. COBBITY CADENCE (7) followed a solid second on debut two runs back with a long last when she broke in a 1780m event at Redcliffe. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Facing a tougher assignment but she is up to the challenge. MAJOR IMPRESSION (10) was beaten 17 metres on debut last start over 1660m at this track. Has plenty of scope for improvement. DIVITO (4) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1660m at this track.

Two-year-old gelding by Captain Crunch out of Cheesandkisses on debut. Showed ability when he won at Albion Park in a trial on July 23 over 1660m. Boasts strong trial form and is expected to measure up.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Sweet Leah Jane at Redcliffe over 1780m in a 2yo on July 15 at $10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second behind Cattlecall at this track over 1660m in a 2yo on July 28 at $4.33. Going along well. Top chance again.

Last start was well beaten into ninth behind Kiss Me Like This at Redcliffe over 1780m in a 2yo on July 29 at $3.30. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Fr2) over 1660m after showing early pace at this track, beaten a head by Lucy Rhayne Bow (2:00.60) in 2yo on July 23 at $26. Looks very hard to beat.
