Richmond Race 6

Ladbrokes Fast Payous Heat 1 H

Prize Money: $2,310

INTENSE POWER (8) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (29.82) at this track behind Zipping Evania in a Grade 5. Led around the bend before fighting on well and should give a sight. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Can measure up this time. ASCEND FERN (2) rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early split and gave a sight before being swamped late, finishing a 3.5 lengths fifth at The Meadows over 525m in 30.52. The form from his last run stacks up well. In the mix. MORNING DAYLIGHT (7) is a progressive dog who scored her 2nd career win last time at this track, scoring by 5.5 lengths (22.75). Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Bold showing expected again. PILOT VEHICLE (1) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Flew the lids with a slick early split and led until late but gathered in when a 3.5 lengths fifth at The Meadows over 525m in 30.52. Speedy conveyance who looks hard to beat.

Lifted to win two runs back and scored again last start over 401m at this track (22.75,) beating Winsome Wanda. Looks well placed to make it three straight.
