Albury Race 7 - Ian Bruce Memorial
SHAKEN SANDS (1) has been coming from wider or second row barriers of late but led from deeper when runner-up at Young three back. Has the speed to take full advantage of the ace draw so should get every chance. GLAMORS SYMBOL (7) placed for the third time in the last four starts when she came from wider on this row and finished second at this circuit and distance last week. Draws for a trail and if she gets the gaps can break through. SPREAD THE FEAR (8) started a hot favourite last week but finished midfield after racing parked. Good effort for second at Young prior so is worth another chance. VALENTINI (10) galloped out but recovered to place here last week. Tricky draw but can make an impact again with manners.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Micton Mouse at Canberra over 1770m in a NR up to 40 on November 30 at $12. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Keayang Alex at this track over 1770m in a NR 36 to 38 on December 9 at $7.50. Likely to play a major role.
