Richmond Straight Race 3

Steeline Riverstone 1-3 Win Ht 2 H

Prize Money: $2,310

STILL AROUND (5) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by a nose at this track in a handy 17.88 beating Bullemor Banner. Can continue the winning form. JET'S DIGGER (1) was a winner (23.16) at Richmond two back but out of the placings last time when 7th there. Has never been out of the money in four starts this course and distance. Reliable out of the boxes and should take advantage of the inside draw. Should be thereabouts. PINCH POINT (6) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing third (17.77) at this track. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from five starts. Ready to find winning form. SNEAKY RETREAT (2) is worth a look over a shorter trip this time. Something for the Multiples: MUSTANG ETHICS (8)

Latest effort finished 7th on December 1 over 320m at Richmond behind Jack's Rocket beaten 14 lengths (19.25) in a Grade 5. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

At the last start finished last over 320m at Richmond beaten 14 lengths (19.26) behind She's Promising in a Grade 5 on January 12. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.

Can settle forward and he showed improvement to place in his last two runs including finished 3rd over 324m at this track beaten 1.3 lengths (17.77) behind Swinton in a Grade 5 on January 16. Finished 3rd in a Grade 5 on January 16 over 324m at this track behind Swinton beaten 1.3 lengths (17.77). Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.
