Form Analysis: Albion Park Dec 22

RACE ONE

Sitting off tempo from the second line here last start, THE TAX CULLECTOR (10) was charging home in the closing stages and had the speed to arrive at the end of the 2138 to zoom past and post a 7m margin. 6m behind HANDS ON the start prior, he will require some tempo to descend again.

WINDY HILL WALLY (4) held the 1x1 trail from gate 2 over the sprint trip two starts back and when set free, had the speed to claim a 3m victory. That was against qualifying company and was followed when midfield behind ARKIN WICKED at Redcliffe. Settling handy, he can issue a challenge.

CAPTAIN NEMO (6) is given no favours from the wide gate but did overcome the outside front line four starts back when finishing best to score. Chasing a hot tempo last start, he is a podium chance.

TIMZEE (9) claimed a qualifier here two starts back when making the most of gate 2 in taking them all the way. Undone by gate 7 last start, he can trail through to chime in here.

SELECTIONS: THE TAX CULLECTOR (10), WINDY HILL WALLY (4), CAPTAIN NEMO (6), TIMZEE (9)
SUGGESTED BET: THE TAX CULLECTOR (10) to win

RACE TWO

Relying on some factors in his favour, if WHATA ROLLER (8) can get an uninterrupted passage to the wire, he can be a knockout hope. Sectionally strong behind a dictating BONNIE PRINCE LOUIS last start, the start prior he was just a half neck from subsequent winner THE TAX CULLECTOR.

SWEET MIRACLE (5) made the perfect start at her first Qld appearance last start when claiming a mares contest after being sent forward from the second line to sit parked and grind out the victory. Arriving with good form around Penrith, she faces another step up here but can looks up to it.

JILLIBY JACKPOT (4) was attacking the line wider on the track in smart fashion last start in grabbing silver behind BEEF CITY BLAZE. A starchy winner at Redcliffe the start prior, he is in the mix here.

CHAMONIX (1) was rattling home from deep field in the Inter Regional Final last start when 2m from the winner BEEF CITY BLAZE. A tough 2^nd to qualify, the improved gate puts him right in this.

SELECTIONS: WHATA ROLLER (8), SWEET MIRACLE (5), JILLIBY JACKPOT (4), CHAMONIX (1)
SUGGESTED BET: WHATA ROLLER (8) to win

RACE THREE

Resuming from a spell last start when drawn gate 6 at Redcliffe, GIRL FROM ROSEDALE (3) was taken back early and ran on soundly to finish just outside the money as MADRIGAL took the win. With super speed off the arm, the added fitness and return to the main draw are big assets.

IDEAL DANCE (2) joins the stables of Ryan Veivers and arrives unplace from his past two starts. Runner-up at Bathurst three runs back when sent to the front from gate 5 but unable to finish them off, he can look to be handy to the action and throw down a challenge.

DIAMOND BIKINI (10) has missed the money just once in her career and lines up here after resuming from a spell for the new stable when beaten a half-neck behind MADRIGAL. She can be chiming in.

MIGHTY GEORGE (1) was snagged back from gate 5 at Redcliffe last start and from deep field never warmed up over the latter stages. With the soft trip, he can be chasing some minor money here.

SELECTIONS: GIRL FROM ROSEDALE (3), IDEAL DANCE (2), DIAMOND BIKINI (10), MIGHTY GEORGE (1)

RACE FOUR

A winner here three starts back in tough fashion, not much has been right for LULU MAE (5) in the two runs since. A second line gate hurt her chances last start and two back she was sitting parked in a strong mile claimed by ARKIN WICKED. Pressing forward, this looks well within reach.

PEPPA BLISS (4) was asked to grind it out first over last start and after the tough trip finished in the second half of the pack. Buried in the run the start prior, she led until deep into the stretch three back when claimed by CHEETAH LODGE off her back. Positioning cheaply will be key to her challenge.

WESTERN SHOWGIRL (1) was a Redcliffe winner from outside the second line three runs back when finishing over the top of them. Not suited last start in front over 2040, she can be sharper here.

SHEZA CRACKER (3) has good early hustle when asked to run the gate and should appreciate a return to this company after trying her luck in Saturday night company her past three.

SELECTIONS: LULU MAE (5), PEPPA BLISS (4), WESTERN SHOWGIRL (1), SHEZA CRACKER (3)
SUGGESTED BET: LULU MAE (5) to win

RACE FIVE

A winner two starts back from the trail over this trip, BEACH ON FIRE (1) started from this same gate on Tuesday over the 2138. Taking the trail, he loomed strongly, only to be collared by HIGHVIEW SADLER which rattle hard up the lane. With the options, he can capitalise.

INCOGNITO (4) was sent forward hard off the arm to lead them up at Redcliffe in the Inter Regional Heat two starts back and led until deep into the stretch, holding 2^nd to JILLIBY JACKPOT. A wide gate dented his chances in the Final and back to this grade, finds the gate to throw it down.

FILLY THIRTEEN (8) maps for the soft trip in behind the speed and can be awaiting the gaps to chase some minor money. 3^rd last start at Redcliffe when under 3m from the winner, she will be probing.

CAPTAIN OH CAPTAIN (9) was a Marburg winner two starts back when making the most of gate 1 to take them all the way, Gate 6 stunted his hopes last time at Redcliffe.

SELECTIONS: BEACH ON FIRE (1), INCOGNITO (4), FILLY THIRTEEN (8), CAPTAIN OH CAPTAIN (9)
SUGGESTED BET: Exotics 1-4-8-9

RACE SIX

A three-start maiden arriving from the South Island of NZ, OUR INDIFFERENCE (8) placed at his last start at Rangiora before departing his homeland. Looking impressive in a trial on this deck, he will need an element of luck and things to go his way from this gate, but he looks up to it first up.

BRAEVIEW FELLA (2) was runner-up here three starts back when hitting the line strongly in the closing stages after facing a second line starting gate. Seeing them off from the front at Redcliffe at his next start, he struck trouble last time and can bounce back here to challenge.

SHEZ ALL STYLE (5) was beaten for early speed from gate 1 last start and was then angled off to sit parked when just behind the money as BEACJ ON FIRE arrived. She can get forward to feature here.

AQUA CRUISER (3) was a tough 2^nd at Redcliffe two starts back when sent around them and finishing just a head from the winner. He snares an improved gate, but his AP record is the query.

RACE SEVEN

An open contest looks on the cards here, with several runners able to put their hoof up to be the one to cash in. ARTS PEREGRINE (9) was runner-up from the trail at Redcliffe last start when 3m from the winner MISS MIA. Getting to the outside here will help and he is worth a ticket.

MARTY THE MARTIAN (2) was last seen when claiming victory back in March when pressing on from gate 5 to find the front and once in control was able to fight them off to score. With a sound trial in readiness for the return, he may just need a run or two to wind up.

ENGLISH DANCE (8) faced the outside second line at Redcliffe last start when just out of the money behind VERMONT. Taking short cuts on The Triangle the start prior when 3^rd, he can chime in here.

LA SABINA (3) tackled the Inter Regional Final last start when locked away three back from inside the second line and finishing midfield. Still chasing a Qld victory, she can settle handy to feature.

SELECTIONS: ARTS PEREGRINE (9), MARTY THE MARTIAN (2), ENGLISH DANCE (8), LA SABINA (3)
SUGGESTED BET: ARTS PEREGRINE (9) to win

RACE EIGHT

Claiming an all the way victory at Marburg two starts back, RANCHO MAN (8) was a red figure fav last start at Redcliffe from the second line. Wide off the track over the closing stages to finish near the rear, he secures the chance to stalk the speed here and can make the closing shot a winner.

KALYPSO KING (1) has faced the starter twice since arriving in Qld, the latest when sent to the post as fav from the second line. Sent around them to sit parked, he was unable to grip on to a placing as BLUE BLOODZ swept home to score. With the improved gate, he gets his chance to challenge.

MY CHINA DOLL (5) was an improved 2^nd last start at Redcliffe when sent out as the fav and making a late play to finish 6m astern of the winner. From a tricky gate, she can grab a minor.

ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (10) was in traffic last start at Redcliffe but was able to grab the bronze, albeit a long way from the winner. With the right cart into this, he is a podium player.

SELECTIONS: RANCHO MAN (8), KALYPSO KING (1), MY CHINA DOLL (5), ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (10)
SUGGESTED BET: RANCHO MAN (8) to win

RACE NINE

A beaten fav last start over the Redcliffe sprint trip, HESLUVABLE (1) started from the second line when midfield to CANNAN. Buried in the run at Marburg and grabbing the silver two starts back, he secures his best gate for some time and gets the options to capitalise.

MY GIRL MANDY (9) was closing it out strongly last start on The Triangle when just a head from the winner. Looking to take them all the way two starts back when 2m astern of the winner, she finds the right opposition here to issue the challenge.

FUNNILY ENOUGH (8) settled in the running line last start and just missed the podium as BLUE BLOODZ arrived. Grabbing the bronze at Marburg two starts back, he can be probing for the gaps.

JANG PEL (10) was a Redcliffe winner four ruins back when pressing forward from outside the front line to take control and see it out. Placed at his past two, he is a place hope once again here.

SELECTIONS: HESLUVABLE (1), MY GIRL MANDY (9), FUNNILY ENOUGH (8), JANG PEL (10)
SUGGESTED BET: HESLUVABLE (1) to win

RACE TEN

RISE ABOVE ALL (3) is the big query runner, stepping out for his first 3YO appearance off the back of one trial. Last seen in the APG Bullion Final in April 2022 when 3^rd, he was not asked for much in the trial. A winner on debut, he placed in both other runs.

TAURUS BROMAC (2) was making his Qld debut off the back of two years off the scene when sent out at Redcliffe as the fav. Taking the trail form gate 1, he was just out of the money as MISTER CAUTIOUS arrived. The added fitness will be a big plus to this challenging chances.

SWEETNSPICY (4) can do plenty of things wrong but has the motor under the bonnet. Finally breaking maiden ranks last start but still banished to the trials, she can feature again here.

ROCKTIME (9) was a beaten fav at Redcliffe last start when just a half-neck behind the winner KISS ON THE BEACH. Breaking the maiden here four runs back, he can be chiming in.
