RACE 8
BOULDERS BEACH (3) didn’t show much gate speed in a recent trial at Albion Park before being pulled widest on the track late and running home powerfully. Looks a clear standout off that trial effort in what is only a moderate maiden field.
FRENCH BUBBLES (7) appeared to be looming into the race nicely last start before making a break at a crucial stage and tailing out. She had trialled well prior to resuming and looks to have drawn suitably in this race to follow out a horse that’s likely to be close enough.
GLENEAGLE FIRE (8) trialled moderately recently at Albion Park when not fully extended in the home straight. She is a half sibling to Gleneagle Vee Cee who has recorded 9 victories from 47 starts and shown good ability in his career to date.
SOMETHINGSRWICKED (1) sat without cover last start and battled on strongly there to be beaten just 2.7 metres behind Vincent Belle who had been knocking on the door for a maiden win for a number of starts. He draws well but doesn’t possess great gate speed which could be a query.
SELECTIONS: BOULDERS BEACH (3), FRENCH BUBBLES (7), GLENEAGLE FIRE (8), SOMETHINGSRWICKED (1)
SUGGESTED BET: GLENEAGLE FIRE (8) each way.
