Albion Park Race 8 - Leading Edge Security Trotters Mbl
DAIMYO (6) broke last start but still managed to fill a minor placing over 2138m at this track, finishing 11 metres from the winner. That was a pleasing progression after missing the placings the run before. This doesn't look as hard so he can get play a major role again. INSTANT DELIGHT NZ (2) finished sixth last start, beaten 25 metres at Redcliffe over 2280m. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. WHIRLWIND WILBUR (4) is worth another chance after a last-start ninth over 2040m at Redcliffe nine days ago. Watch for a spike in form. MACKEL SONNY (5) ended last prep with a ninth at Menangle over 1609m five-and-a-half months ago. This easier and can open this campaign with a much more positive effort.

Last start 6th (10m) over 2280m at Redcliffe, beaten 25 m by Darcys Fireball (2:54.60) on September 8 at $6.50. The start before was well back in the run when 5th (Fr7) over 1660m at this track, beaten 24 m by Sheza Chance (1:58.80) on August 18 at $23. Capable of a better showing.

Comes here second-up after a week. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Fr2) over 2138m at this track, beaten 55 m by Northern Heights (2:36.50) in 4yo+ on September 11 at $151. Possible improver.

Fair performance when beaten by 3.5 m finishing fourth after a quick start, behind Darcys Fireball at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ on August 6 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when second behind Cascata at this track over 2138m on August 25 at $6.50. Looks very hard to beat.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr7) over 1660m at this track beaten 30 m by Majestic Lavros (1:59.00) on September 15 at $51. Two runs back broke in score up and was out of position at the start 9th (Fr4) over 2138m at this track, well beaten by Northern Heights (2:36.50) in 4yo+ on September 11 at $61. Not keen on her chances in this line-up.
