Richmond Race 4

Poolwerx Richmond/Kurrajong 1-3 Win

Prize Money: $3,235

BLUE MOON MAGIC (7) has a strong winning strike-rate this journey having won three of five starts. Placed last time (25.30) at Maitland in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 0.8 lengths. Appeals as a leading chance in this. TIGHT BOND (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (23.01) in a Grade 5 at this track over 401m. Expected to give a good account. UNPLUG BEN (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (18.58) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has the ability to give this a shake. HAWKESBURY HONEY (8) is likely to have admirers.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, leading chance on best form.
