Albury Race 4 - Apco North Albury Pace
IN THE SUMMERTIME NZ (6) finished fourth last start, beaten 3.5 metres at Young over 1720m. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player. PIRANI PRINCESS (5) settled handy then drove to the lead and found plenty only to finish a very close second last start over 1720m at Young. Meets a similar line up and she can figure in the finish. MURPHYS REWARD NZ (9) ended last prep with a third at Temora over 2000m. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. LETTYS REASON (3) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up when resuming over 1720m at Young last time out. A good draw helps, so include him in all combos to be safe.

Didn't do much last start, 6th (Sr3) over 1720m at Young, at the bell was 6th-9.5 beaten 7 m by My Ultimate Bruno (2:06.20) on August 4 at $26. Before that then settled down to finish ninth over 1660m at Parkes last start. Not on current form.

Two back was well beaten into ninth after being driven well back, behind Nasana at Riverina Paceway over 1740m on July 28 at $101. Then a handy effort when a close second after showing early speed, behind Berrylicious at Young over 1720m in a M on August 4 at $5. Rates highly. Has definite top 4 claims.
