Richmond Race 4

Ladbrokes Quick Multi

Prize Money: $2,490

ALMOST (1) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only 1.3 lengths from Weffalee Lee Lee in third (18.44) at this track. Reliable out of the boxes and should take advantage of the inside draw. Makes plenty of appeal. NIRMADA (2) flew the lids from the middle with an impressive turn of foot, going on to clock 23.06 when a 0.8 lengths winner over 401m at this track. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Bold showing expected again. TUMBY BAY (4) was an impressive winner last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by a nose (30.11) at this track. Capable of going close again. ASCEND FERN (3) boasts a solid strike-rate over this trip.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 3rd on November 16 over 320m at this track behind Weffalee Lee Lee beaten 1.3 lengths (18.44) in a NG. Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 401m in 23.06 last start, beating Midnight Fury. The last win was in one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with her.

Good performance to win by a nose at this track over 520m (30.11) beating Winsome Storm in Grade 5 on November 14. Top-three hope with the right run.

Won two starts back won at this course over 320m. Couldn't reproduced the effort last start when she finished 2nd on November 16 over 401m at this track behind Rosacky Rayo beaten 2 lengths (23.09) in a Grade 4/5. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Had been racing in honest fashion before missing the frame last time out, finishing fifth (23.32) at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate and looks tested this line up.
