Richmond Race 10

Ladbrokes Quick Multi

Prize Money: $2,335

FUNKY SCAR (7) proved too good on debut over 320m at this track to score by one length (18.57). Drawn wide but has good early pace. Rates a top chance again. TAP OUT BOSTON (1) turned in a plain run last time when fifth at this track over 320m behind Queen Caramel (19.02) in a Grade 5. Likely to play a prominent role. HEY BARBIE GIRL (4) has a strong record this track and trip including three wins from five starts. Below best last time at this track (18.67) in a Grade 5, finishing a 2 length fourth. Among the main chances. HOUDINI ESCAPE (2) is worth consideration.

Comments

Missed the frame last time but prior to that was in the money twice in a row including a narrow loss two back when second (18.37) over 320m at this track. Aided by a low draw but will need the breaks to go his way.

Comments

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and tends to spot them a start in her races, The latest effort was a 12 length eighth over 320m at this track. Can't make much of a case this time.

Made considerable ground after settling back on debut. Won by one length at this track (18.57) beating Akii Road in a Maiden on July 17. Will find this much tougher but she's got good box manners and speed. Back in great order and makes plenty of appeal again.
