Albury Race 4 - Tickets On Sale Now For Commercial Club Albury Gold Cup Mdn Hcp
In a thin form race FROSTED AMBER (4) is clearly on top. Progressed nicely last start when facing the starter for only the second time, driving hard late only to be beaten a long neck over this trip at Wangaratta. Just needs to hold that form to take care of these. INZAIN BABY (5) debuted under Bjorn Baker on 23 December at Bathurst but failed to live up to market expectations. Now in the Mick Travers yard and given the lack of depth to this race he gets a chance to make amends. CASTLEBAY (6) is a Highland Reel filly on debut for the Ledger stable. Went well in a trial here on 19 January and looks ready to make a positive start to her career. DANTAINS PRIZE (11) resumes. Was rarely far away last prep but she is now 13 without a win which is a worry. Each-way hope while fresh. MIDNIGHT EAGLE (2) was poor first-up at Wangaratta but he returned a good figure at his only other run back in August at Wodonga. Might surprise.

Third race start. First start came from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Wodonga Mdn-Sw on August 5 over 1100m, on heavy track; 0.5 len behind With Strength carrying 57kg at $61. Went for a break before returning 7th of 10 at Wangaratta 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 18 over 1170m, 11 len behind Big Star carrying 58kg at $13. Capable of featuring based on the debut run last prep.

Having third race start. At big odds at debut, sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 at Kyneton Mdn-Sw on December 11 over 1203m, 3 len behind Rattle'n'roll carrying 57.5kg at $31. Second-up made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Wangaratta 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on January 18 over 1170m, long-neck behind Silver Top Ridge with 57.5kg at $4.40. Has improvement to come and this looks her race to lose.
