Albion Park Race 3 - Garrards Horse & Hound Pace
MACH ASSASSIN (1) has been racing well from this barrier. Led and kept going to score by 4m at Redcliffe before using the sprint lane when missing narrowly here last week, finishing second and just a nose from the winner. Big chance. OUR ROCKY (4) has changed yards since a last-start fourth at Wagga, beaten 4.5 metres. Won a trial there last month. Expected to run well. O B LEGAL NZ (6) is ticking along well and is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance at this circuit and distance. KICK THE SWITCH (7) draws wide but is worth some thought after his last-start fourth.

Last start solid effort when 2nd (Fr1) over 2138m after showing early pace at this track beaten a nose by Dragon (2:33.30) in 3yo+ on August 27 at $14. Two runs back posted a big 4 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Redcliffe (2:30.30) beating Studleigh Mark in 3yo+ on August 21 at $2. Strong claims.

Didn't do much at the last run, 5th (Fr4) over 2138m at this track beaten 8 m by Gem Punter Pete (2:34.40) in 4yo+ on August 20 at $41. Before that 7th (Fr2) over 1780m at Redcliffe, beaten 20 m by Beyond Doubt (2:10.00) in 3yo+ on August 13 at $31. Not keen on his chances in this field.
